If you do not have a Wi-Fi-enabled device, you can use the public library computers to access the Internet. The cost of Internet time is $1 per session, paid in advance at the library desk. Sessions are one hour or less.
Users are allowed one Internet session per day. However, if there are no other library guests waiting, you can purchase a second session (or more).
Everyone who uses library computers for Internet access should be aware of our Internet Policy, including the following terms of use:
- There are no reservations. Computer use is on a first come, first served basis.
- You cannot request a specific workstation, unless you require an accessible computer.
- Parents of minors (under 12 years of age) must assume responsibility for their children's use by either accompanying them at workstations or signing a consent form.
- The Favourites list on the computers may not be changed (i.e., added to or deleted from).
- The screensaver may not be changed.
- The operating system and computer programs may not be changed in any way.
- Only two people at a time are allowed at any one workstation, unless training is being conducted.
- You may not read screens over other computer users' shoulders. The workstations have been arranged in a format to ensure privacy.
The use of library computers is a privilege that can be withdrawn by Elliot Lake Public Library staff if a user's behaviour is inappropriate or if users are not following library Internet policy or federal or provincial laws.
