Free Hotspots at Public Libraries
Embedded Files
The Public Library systems of NYC (NY, Queens, Brooklyn) are distributing up to 1,000 wireless hotspots. These devices provide FREE internet, and are perfect for connecting families who don't have access at home. Families can "check out" a WiFi hotspot from their local library to keep for the entire school year.
The program is open to parents and caregivers with public library cards who:
Are at least 18 years old and support a child in a New York City public school (students who are 18 may borrow on their own)
Have no household Internet access at the time of sign-up;
Have a valid adult library card with less than $15 fines in fines
WHERE:
