Public Computers & Wi-Fi

Public Computers

Desktop computers are available for use at both our branches on a walk-in basis.

At Main Branch we offer 12 computers, including one “express” workstation, while at Queensborough Branch we provide four computers, including one “express” workstation. The computers at Main Branch are located on the second floor.

Session limits

Users are limited to one 60-minute session per day at regular workstations and one 15-minute session per day at express workstations in order to provide access to as many users as possible.

How to log in

To log in to a desktop computer, use your library card number and four-digit PIN. If you do not have a library card, you may request a guest pass from staff. Guest passes are one-time use and should be recycled following your session.
