Upper Sandusky library goes wireless for patrons
By BRANDON DRAKE
Staff writer
Users with laptop computers or other devices now are able to access high speed Internet service at Upper Sandusky Community Library, as the library started offering wireless Internet access to its patrons last month.
The new wireless option is provided by the Ohio Public Library Information Network, according to Elizabeth Bringman, the library's technology coordinator.
"This is something that a number of customers have been requesting,"Bringman said. "We have had people stop in and ask if they can use their laptops to check e-mail when they come through town. Now we will be able to tell them, ‘Yes, we do have that capability.'”
