For over a decade the Glen Lake Community Library in Empire has offered the use of computers and free Internet. A few years ago Wi-Fi was added so that visitors could have access from their personal laptops.

In an effort to reach more users in the library’s district, a computer and Wi-Fi network were added to the health club in Maple City. Meanwhile, the Glen Lake Chamber of Commerce had offered free access and Wi-Fi in Glen Arbor at Dune Wear. This will continue with the changeover to Bay Wear, and features a new computer supplied by the Library.

Through their initiative, Wi-Fi was also added to the Glen Arbor Garden, courtesy of The Cottage Book Shop. Combined with the existing coverage offered by Leelanau Coffee Roasting and Cherry Republic, there is almost a complete Wi-Fi cloud spanning three blocks of downtown Glen Arbor. How did we ever survive without it?
