The Ottawa Public Library has added more than 100 lightweight laptops called Chromebooks to its collection following the success of a pilot project last year.
The pilot project saw Chromebooks introduced to the Alta Vista, Carlingwood, Greely, Nepean Centrepointe, Rideau and St-Laurent branches. People can borrow the Chromebooks to use in the branch for three-hour periods.
“As our spaces are changing to accommodate customers and their devices, it’s great that we are able to lend out these maintenance-free and secure laptops to Ottawans to check up on their emails, read the latest news, or do some research,” Coun. Jan Harder, OPL board chairwoman, said in a statement.
Last year, wireless usage at the Ottawa Public Library was up 35 per cent compared to 2012. They said they expect this trend to continue and they are “gearing up to accommodate this change.”
