The Peñitas Public Library now loans out WIFI / HotSpots!!
Peñitas is now Implementing a Mobile Hotspot Lending Program at your library offers up a world of possibilities for you.
Enabling patrons to take the Internet home offers a number of unique benefits such as:
Bridging the Digital Divide
Lessening the homework gap for children
Providing internet options to rural areas with poor or no coverage
Offering connectivity to financially disadvantaged patrons
Helping individuals with employment opportunities
Accessing health information, especially for seniors
Offering connectivity at community wide events
Allowing individuals living with disabilities the option to access the Internet from the comfort of home
By loaning out the Internet, just like a book, your Library can provide its patrons with 24/7 access to Internet. In an increasingly interconnected world, the Internet is vital in day to day life. Offering mobile hotspot devices to your patrons will help meet their information needs in new and exciting ways.
