Our Facilities

Our Computers:

Newcastle Libraries has a range of computers available including upgraded desktop PCs and Mac desktops across all of our branches. You can book sessions on these computers online through our MyMonitor portal.

Just drop in to your local branch and enter your membership number at any computer that has a green 'available' screen to start. To ensure fair access for all we limit computer sessions to one hour at a time. If there is no other booking for the computer you are using as a member you are welcome to extend your session and continue to use it. Not a library member? It's free - Join online now!

All of our library branches also offer photocopying and scanning facilities using our Multi-Function Devices (MFDs). You can copy in black and white and colour, and choose from A4 or A3 paper sizes. You can also scan to a USB or an email account directly from our MFDs.
