Wireless Internet

East Gwillimbury Public Library provides wireless access in both its Holland Landing and Mount Albert Branches.

Patrons can connect to the Internet through their laptops and other mobile devices and avoid having to wait for one of the Library’s Internet workstations to become available. This service is accessible from any location within either branch, including quiet study areas.

Wireless service is available during the Library’s regular hours of operation to anyone with a current East Gwillimbury Public Library card and to Visitors. Patrons need to provide their own wireless-ready device.  Instructions for printing can be found below.

All wireless users are expected to act in a lawful and respectful manner. By connecting to the Library wireless network, users are required to conform to the conditions outlined in the Public Internet Use Policy.

For instructions on how to connect to the wireless Internet, please read our Wireless Brochure.
