Hotspots
The Pittsburg Public Library now offers mobile hotspots for check-out. A mobile hotspot is a portable Wifi device that allows you to carry a portable internet source with you wherever you go. With a mobile hotspot, you will have wireless internet access in your car, at home, or anywhere else. It does not need to be plugged into a data port and you do not need a wireless or internet subscription to use it. Please call the PPL Computer Lab at (620) 230-5559 for more information.
Check out and return a hotspot from the PPL Computer Lab desk (second floor).
