Wifi hotspot lending
We are expanding our hotspot lending program! Pick up a device from our library locations.
Lending guidelines
- To check out a Wi-Fi hotspot, you must read, understand, and sign the Technology Waiver and Lending Agreement.
- Return Wi-Fi hotspots to a staff member directly, not placed in the drop box, or left on the counter.
- Due to the high demand, Wi-Fi hotspots must be picked up within 3 days of receiving a hold pickup notification.
Who can borrow
- Use a Greater Sudbury Public Library card (Passport) in good standing to borrow a Wi-Fi hotspot.
- Minors (patrons under 18) may use their library card to check out a Wi-Fi hotspot if their Guardian, has signed an agreement giving that minor permission.
