Embudo Valley Library is correct.  Today we set up a public computer at a picnic table outside on the library porch, with cords going through the window, and sanitizing wipes on the table.  We will move it in and out every morning and evening.  You can see the computer from the office, so I don't think we will have a security problem.  Based on a community suggestion, we finally figured out how to comply with the executive order, but also provide a necessary service to those who need it.  :). I'm finally feeling like we found a solution that protects everyone's health.  Hurray!

Good morning!
If you would like your library to be included on the wifi map please update the spreadsheet today so we can post the map tomorrow!

Hi everyone,



This morning Eli, the State Librarian, shared a neat Google Map from the Georgia Public Library Service, their state library. On their website, the map shows the wifi status of all the libraries with categories such as, Wifi Available--No Password, No Wifi Available, Library Card Required, etc. You can see the page here:



https://georgialibraries.org/library-everywhere/#librarywifi<https://georgialibraries.org/library-everywhere/#librarywifi>


?
This is such a great service to the public and the libraries that we'd like to do something similar.

With that in mind, we'd like to ask everyone to visit the Google Doc below and update column C on Wifi Availability for your library.  To make things easier and consistent, Eli's created a dropdown menu for that column. Please visit the spreadsheet and update it for your library as soon as you are able.

??We know some of you gave us wifi information a couple of weeks ago, but also that the information has changed for some of the libraries in the interim.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Peace and safety to you all,

Dale
