We do not have anything for use by public but will be sure to bring this up with manager and discuss with them.

Ash, 2022/10/01 11:31

We currently on have a projector.
We use this when we are running sessions, making it easier to share content and so everyone can view.

Janette, 2022/03/26 11:30

Projector, head phones, trackballs.

Susana Hughes, 2021/07/19 14:49

Only earphones in our public computers (customers have to purchase or use their own for WPHS), touch screens on our self-service machines, eKiosk, and public printer.

Neill Hahn, 2021/04/12 16:11

pcs that can be used in the library.
a large (physical) magnifier.
Large print books and spoken word "books".
A delivery service.

Most of our public-use devices are touchscreen, but that's all. My previous workplace had a text-magnifier for physical books.

Hannah, 2020/10/06 13:46

As above, some of our computers are touch screen and we offer headphones however that is all.

Colleen Hobdell, 2020/10/02 10:32

Touch screens

Carolyn Beattie, 2020/10/01 11:16

public computers are touch screen and we offer disposable headphones to buy

Brendan, 2020/09/28 14:54

We have touch screen computers

Kirrily, 2020/09/23 15:46

our Mygove computer is touch screen, and we have head phones, we had some other items in on of our other branches but they where super out dated and could no longer be used.

Alexis, 2020/09/21 16:39

Ditto Eleanor.
We have a large screen we project to when conducting digital literacy classes

Eleanor, 2020/09/18 10:57

At the moment we only offer headphones but we are looking in devices that allow you to see a customer's device or form while maintaining social distancing.

Judy, 2020/09/16 11:16

We have a projector for interactive use.
Some of these suggestions would be useful as we have an older generation in our rural area

Jennifer, 2020/09/11 09:15

We have trackball

Christi, 2020/08/27 14:40

We use a projector screen so the participants can see a larger screen version of what we are discussing for the day

Sharynn, 2020/08/19 16:19

Only headphones. Will have to look into some of these

Katrine, 2020/09/03 14:52

This is a great idea for group sessions. Unfortunately we are not running sessions at the moment but the projector screen is one item that we do have access to so will use in future.

Nicole , 2020/08/18 15:25

HUE Pro Camera - USB camera allows the small device screen to be viewed on a laptop screen - good for technical assistance whilst maintaining social distancing.
