Library customers can now check out laptop computers to use in the Library building. Microsoft Word is installed on the laptops, and Internet access is provided by the Library's free Wi-Fi service. You can save files on a flash drive or burn a CD. (If you don't have your own, you can buy flash drives and blank CDs at the Library Store.) Printing is not yet available, but we're working on it.

Laptops check out for two hours. To borrow a laptop, you need a current Monterey Public Library or Pacific Grove Public Library card, and you must read and sign a Laptop Computer User Agreement. If you are under 18, a parent or guardian must also sign the User Agreement.

The first four laptops were purchased with funds from the Library Trust Fund. We just added four additional laptops thanks to the Friends of the Monterey Public Library.

You can borrow a Library laptop at the Check out Desk.
