* The library has three types of LCD projectors, InFocus projectors that are designed to be connected to a laptop computer, Epson DVD projectors which are designed for projecting DVDs, and two BenQ smart portable projectors.
The InFocus LCD projectors have HDMI and VGA video connections that are intended to be used with computers that have a HDMI or VGA video-out port. If you have a computer or device without an HDMI or VGA port, you will need to provide your own adapter to use the projectors. Most Mac computers and all iPads, tablets and smart phones will need an adapter.
The BenQ projectors are designed to be portable and can connect to a Google account. The library has the GS50 and GV30 projectors, both with HDMI connections. Learn more about the projectors at the BenQ website.
The Kindle e-Ink Readers have dozens of books already loaded, mostly best-sellers and classics. Click here for the list of books on the Kindles.
