New Computers!
We just added 4 new public computers, for a total of 10! This should reduce your wait when you need to check your email, type something up, or find something online. The new computers are replacing the old word processor machines. They are in the nook in the southeast corner of the library.
These computers were provided thanks to generous support from the Boeing Employee Community Fund, the Glen Riddle Rotary Club, and the Aston Business Association!
We also have a laptop now available for short-term (10 minute) use at the Circulation Desk, if you need to check your email or something real quick and all the computers are taken. This computer was sponsored as part of our grant from the Praxair Foundation!
