Computer Time Limits
Public computers are available on a first come, first served basis. During busy times, customers can join a waitlist for the next available computer.
Computers can be used daily for two hours. If there continues to be open computers available, customers can opt in to two 30-minute extensions.
Laptop Lending Kiosks & WiFi Hotspot
Anythink offers laptops at select locations and WiFi hotspots with your library card.
We have one laptop lending kiosk at Anythink Thornton Community Center, and those laptops are similar to our public desktops in terms of what they offer. Customers can check out a laptop for the day with their library card and use the computer anywhere in the building. Laptops do need to be returned before the library closes each day.
WiFi Hotspots are also available to take home and use for one week.
Grab and go laptops can only be used in branch and returned before you leave.
Every branch has a limited number of 4G Chromebooks and Adobe Laptops, as well as 4G iPads that can be placed on hold. Please ask a staff member at your local Anythink Library for more details.
