All branches have at least one AWE Ready to Read Computer with educational software to promote early literacy skills at a child-sized workstation.

Pocket Wi-Fi

The Clermont County Public Library can help you be better connected to the Internet.

The Library has mobile Wi-Fi devices that can be borrowed for seven days at a time. For more information, see the Acceptable Use Procedures. Visit our catalog to place a hold on a device.

This device is a small router that uses a 5G signal to create mobile connections to the Internet. Tech support will be provided by the manufacturer.

“We are happy to provide this service. It will serve patrons who have no Internet at home or have poor service. It can help guests who need a mobile hotspot away from home,” said Christine Wick, library director. “Library staff members constantly look for new ways to provide innovative services to the community that will enhance the lives of guests. This is another service we believe meets that goal.”

The library will continue to offer free Wi-Fi and public computers inside each branch.
