Hotspots! Get Your Hotspots!
Get connected with Wi-Fi hotspots from the library! We have two different WiFi hotspots available: 

  • Standard Hotspots: Checkout period is 3 weeks (21 days) + two renewals.
  • 6-Month Hotspots: Checkout period is 6 months (180 days)

Coming soon, we’ll be expanding our connectivity options to include Chromebooks for checkout. Stay tuned for more information in 2023! 

Partial funding for these hotspots was provided by a grant from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) called the Emergency Connectivity Fund. Over $7.1 billion dollars was provided to schools and libraries to support remote learning in the United States and is intended to fill the need for individuals and families who lack adequate access to the internet and devices during the pandemic and beyond.
