How Do I - Library Computers
How do I signup to use a computer?
We have two kinds of computers available for public use at the library. They are:
Catalog PC: Catalog-only terminals are located throughout the library. You do not need to sign up to use a catalog-only terminal. The majority of these workstations are located down the center walk way of the library. Using these machines you can browse our online catalog, check you library account and reserve a PC.
Internet & Office Application PC: computers for Internet and/or Office application use are located by the Information Desk and in the Children’s Department.
- In order to use the computers in the Children's Department, you must establish a username and password at the Children's Information desk.
- To use the computers in the Adult Service area, you will need to establish a username and password with our electronic Sign On Station system. Please ask at the Information desk if you need assistance with the Sign On Station system. Sign ups for computers are same day only.

What? No more floppy drives.
We no longer support floppy drives on our machines. In fact most new machines you purchase no longer come standard with floppy drives. Floppy disks are quickly going the way of the dinosaur as they are easily damaged causing the loss of data. Instead of floppy drives we recommend USB thumb drives. These are significantly more reliable and can store about 1000 times as much information as a single floppy disk. We have thumb drives available for purchase at our Circulation desk.
