Computers:
The library maintains a number of computers and related
services for our patrons' use.
You will need to have your library card with you to use the
computers. When using a computer you may print up to five
pages for free; additional pages are $0.20 per page.
Word processing computers are available so
that you can type and print out your letter, paper, resume, or
other item. These computers are booked in one-hour timeslots.
We also have several
internet access
computers that may be booked in one-hour timeslots. These
computers are in high demand, especially certain times of day,
so you may want to call and reserve one ahead of time.
Access to the internet is provided in accordance with our
internet access policy.
If you need to use the internet for just a few minutes, our
QuickNet computer is available for use in
short timeslots (up to fifteen minutes). The QuickNet
computer is not reserved ahead like the others; it's
available on a first-come first-served basis, so you can
just walk up to it, use your library card number as a
password, and get right on.
Additionally, we provide a wireless access point (802.11b/g
hotspot
), so that your wireless-capable laptop or other
device can connect to the internet from anywhere on the
library grounds (yes, it works out on the lawn).
The
SSID
for our access point is called
publicaccess
, and
it is available to the public all the time.
The library also subscribes to a number of useful
information
resources. Our patrons may access these resources from
within the library (using the internet computers) or from home,
via the internet (using your library card number for access).
