How to Connect
Wireless service is available at all 33 branches during library hours of operation. You must provide your own wireless device, such as a laptop or mobile device. Wireless users are required to abide by the provisions of the Public Network Access Policy.
To access wireless service, follow these steps:
- Connect to the network opl-bpo.
- Open your browser.
- Enter your library card number and PIN.
- Check the box I accept.
- Your device must be set to enable cookies. Any pop-up blockers must be disabled.
