Even Closed, Corridor Libraries Boosting Internet Access

MARION — Almost every day, Marion Library Director Hollie Trenary sees people sitting in their cars in the parking lot outside to take advantage of the free Wi-Fi. Since the library closed March 16, Wi-Fi has been boosted as far outside the building and into the parking lot as possible to be accessible to patrons who don’t have it in their homes.“Without connection to the internet, people feel really cut off from information,” Trenary said in an interview this week.
