High-speed internet access provided by Suddenlink Cable
allows patrons to check web-based e-mail, perform online banking,
or just surf the World Wide Web.

SECURITY

Security is provided through Symantec Antivirus and
Spybot Search & Destroy 1.5 software. Our network routers
are also equipped with hardware firewalls for even greater security.

SOFTWARE

Microsoft Office XP software enables patrons to create
word processing documents, spreadsheets, or presentations for work, home, or school. Patrons may burn data to CD or DVD discs
(not provided) using Roxio Easy Media Creator 7 software. You
will also find photo editors, sound file editors and more
available for your use.

Our computers are equipped with personal headphones for private listening, and a DVD drive and software to watch DVDs or listen to music CDs. Front USB ports allow easy copying of personal data to increasingly popular USB "thumb drives" or "flash drives".

This printer is set to duplex (double-sided) printing by default.
Ask the Library staff for assistance changing printer options.
