Can you use your own laptop in a library?
Personal laptops and devices
You can use personal laptops and other devices in libraries providing that you do not disturb others.
Libraries provide users with opportunities to use computers and other devices (e.g. laptops, tablets, ebook readers, etc.) to access online resources such as library catalogs, research databases, ebooks, other digital content, and the Internet.
