Public Access Computers @ Hartford Public Library

Free public access computers with Internet access are available at all branches
of the Hartford Public Library.
A Hartford Public Library card is required to use computers in the Library. Non-residents may use either their own valid hometown library card or obtain one issued by the Hartford Public Library; the latter will be valid only at the Hartford Public Library. Even if you live outside of Connecticut, you can still obtain a library card valid at the Hartford Public Library only upon presentation of picture identification with proof of current address.
Reservations for a 1 hour session may be made in person using Pharos, the Library's computer reservation system. Express Internet computers are also available for 15 minute sessions. Once your time expires, the computer will log off automatically.
