Council confident computer users in four local libraries will benefit from machine upgrades

Computer upgrades ahoy - Grimsby Library

                                                              
NEW, faster and more reliable public network  desktop computers are to be installed in four public libraries - Cleethorpes, Grimsby, Immingham and Waltham.

The need for an upgrade was one of the issues highlighted in responses to a  consultation exercise which took place between January and March this year.

The new devices will not only be faster and more reliable, but they will also have the latest software and  larger screens.

Each library will also have one 34″ monitor and a larger keyboard for the benefit of visually impaired or disabled users.

Says North East Lincolnshire Council's portfolio holder for culture and heritage, Cllr Hayden Dawkins: "These new PCs will give our customers a much better experience, with faster speeds and greater reliability."

There will be no access to the public network in any of the library branches, which are operated by Lincs Inspire, on Monday and Tuesday, November 25 and 26  so that the installations can take place.
