Local Tobago ~ Scarborough Library
The recently opened Scarborough Library Facility is the first in the Caribbean to have specialty self-service laptop kiosk stations.
The service, which was developed and installed by the American based company LaptopsAnytime, was officially launched on Monday.
The two kiosks at the library each securely store, recharge, wipe, clean and dispense six laptops to accommodate on- demand usage at the library.
LaptopsAnytime CEO, Mr Matt Buscher stated that the company was excited to have the Scarborough Library as the first installation in the Caribbean.
The CEO applauded the initiative for the library’s innovative approach to incorporating technology into their facility.
Head of Tobago Library Services, Helen Johnson said the service is in keeping with the Tobago Library’s mandate to be the leading provider of information on the island.
The two kiosks are located in the James Biggart Adult Library and the Young Adult Library within the facility.
Patrons in possession of a library card can borrow a laptop for two hour periods within the library.
