How can I get help with internet access?
Answer
Borrow a hotspot
Check this link- available hotspots - to see if the Library has any hotspots available for checkout.
The availability of equipment changes during the day as items are borrowed or returned.
If no items display, then none are available.
Check to see which campus libraries have a hotspot and visit or call the one nearest you. All technology checkouts must be done in person. Please bring an ID.
