COMPUTERS

Computers are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please visit our front circulation desk to obtain computer access.

  • Patrons are limited to a 60-minute computer session, but if computers are still available and other patrons aren’t waiting for a computer, you may have more than one session.
  • Warren Public Library uses Envisionware, a reservation software, to ensure patron privacy. Upon arriving at the computer, you will be required to scan your library card in order to begin a computer session. Guest passes are available by checking in at the circulation desk.
    • If you need to step away during your session, you may select the “Hide My Screen” option and set a password to leave for up to 5 minutes.
    • At the start of a session, the computer restarts automatically which removes all documents and traces of use. Please bring a flash drive to save any work you may have. Flash drives are also available for purchase at the circulation desk.
