Public Computers and Printing

-A +A

The DC Public Library (DCPL) provides computers to patrons on a walk-in, first-come first-served basis.

Each patron must use his/her own library card to reserve a computer. Use of another person’s card number is not allowed.

Each patron is allowed up to a total of 140 minutes per day throughout the DCPL system. Adults are allowed two 70-minute sessions (unless using a 15-minute express station), and children are allowed four 35-minute sessions.  If there is no one waiting, session lengths are automatically extended.

For more information, visit our Computer Use Guidelines.

Printouts are provided at the following rates:

  • 15 cents for black and white
  • 35 cents for color
