Public Computers
The Cambridge Community Library has nine computer workstations that have internet access. Internet connections are provided through Firefox and Chrome. All computers have Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 loaded, which includes Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, and several other programs.
Sound is disabled on all workstations. To listen to online content, each patron must use headphones that can plug into the workstation. The library has public-used headphones available at the circulation desk. The Library also sells earbuds.
No content may be saved on the workstations once the patron is finished working. Patrons may bring a flash drive to download documents. Flash drives may be purchased at the library.
