Use a Library PC
All libraries have public computers that you can use to print, fill in application forms and search the web.
You can log in to any available PC with your library card number and PIN. If you don’t know your PIN, ask at the library counter.
PC use is for 1 hour and it can be extended to a maximum of 2 hours.
Access Library Wi-Fi
To use library Wi-Fi for the first time, visit the library counter and staff will create an account for you. You’ll then log in with your email address and password.
Wi-Fi access lasts for the duration of your library visit. You will need to log in again on your next library visit.
Use your school device in the library
If you have an iPad that was issued by your school, it will automatically connect to our Wi-Fi without the need to log in.
