A project is under way to provide free wireless internet access to rural libraries. However, this BBC report seems to have been written by someone who has no idea what is actually on offer. Much better is this press report from the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council which has been written by someone who understands what 'wireless' actually means. Take your laptop into any of the ten pilot sites mentioned, you can connect to the Internet and they'll lend you the kit you need if necessary. Of course, the really smart libraries will incorporate the correct warchalking signs into their literature, or is that all old hat now?
