Borrow a Hotspot from Your Local Massachusetts Library

Many libraries in Massachusetts have hotspots available for loan to library patrons. Here's how to borrow a hotspot: 

1. Check the local Massachusetts library map to see if they have hotspots available for loan.
2. If hotspots are available, check to see if there are any restrictions on who can borrow them, how long they can be borrowed for, and if there are any fees or deposits required.
3. If you meet the requirements and agree to the terms of the loan, reserve a hotspot online or at the library.
4. Pick up the hotspot at the library and follow the instructions provided for connecting to the internet.
5. Be sure to return the hotspot to the library at the end of the loan period to avoid any late fees.
