Public Access Computers

Internet access is provided to patrons at our public computer workstations upstairs. While using our public computers or any internet service provided by the library, you agree to adhere to the Spanish Fork Internet Access policy.

Children's computers are available on the 1st floor for parents, caregivers, and children only. Anyone accessing materials deemed inappropriate for the Children’s Department by the Children’s staff will be asked to log off and will be barred from computer use for one week. On a second infraction, the patron will be barred indefinitely from further use of Children’s computers.

There is no cost to use our public internet computers, but you are required to log on with a library card. If you do not have a library card, you can ask a librarian for a free guest pass. Computer use is on a first-come, first-served basis. Internet sessions are one hour long, but additional time can be requested from a librarian.

Wireless access is available for people who wish to use a mobile device or personal laptop. Please remember to bring your own cables, if needed.

Material Requests

Patrons must be 18 years or older to submit a request.

Material requests are limited to 2 per month per account. Additional requests will not be processed until the following month. Requests will not be accepted prior to 30 days before the release date.

Occasionally, an item may not be available for purchase, however, we may be able to provide the item through an inter-library loan. There is a $4.00 charge applied towards shipping costs for each inter-library loan item ordered, which you must pay when you check out the item. This $4.00 charge is applied to your account even if you do not pick up the item requested for ILL. Inter-library loans are not available for e-content through Overdrive/Libby or Kindle.

You can place requests online through our catalog.
