Computers are available on a drop-in basis, but you can also use your library card to book a computer.

Borrow a laptop or iPad from our device-lending kiosks. A valid library card is required to sign out a device for same-day, in-library usage. Borrowed devices must be returned to the kiosk by the end of the day.

Get a boost of sunshine through our light therapy lamp. You can sit next to the lamp and enjoy the benefits while you read or work in the library.

Light therapy lamps emit light that mimics outdoor light. It is known to help lift your mood and reduce symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) during Fall and Winter seasons.

Areas with light therapy lamps are available on a first-come, first-served, drop-in basis.

Clarkson Library offers print, scan and photocopy services. You can print your documents using a library computer or your own device and can pay for the service using your Library Print Account.

You can learn more about printing and photocopying and the Library Print Account.
