Fe, Wi-Fi, Fo, Fum! You can now swap your books for bandwidth by tapping into free Wi-Fi across Isaac's eight libraries!
Isaac Regional Council Mayor Anne Baker said residents and visitors can now download up to 500MB a day on smartphones, tablets, laptops and other wireless devices.
"It's great to see our communities back in our libraries and now residents can discover so much more than just books," Mayor Baker said.
"Whether you're a student, small business owner, traveller or resident, you can now log-on to study, email, browse and read."
"Accessing Wi-Fi is essential to the way we live, and this is just another way we're making our regional communities more connected, more modern, and better places to work and play."
Mayor Baker said you don't need to be a library member to use the new Wi-Fi service.
"Anyone can use the Wi-Fi, but joining the library is free and gives members access to a wide range of online resources, books, movies, music and more," Mayor Baker said.
Visitors can access the Wi-Fi between 7am and 7pm, Monday to Friday by simply searching for the network "IRC Libraries" in the Wi-Fi settings.
