Higginsville – Beyond the Library

John Knox, Trails Regional, and WILS staff stand behind a WILS table in front of a WILS van that is parked in front of the John-Knox care facility in Higginsville

Trails Regional Library and WILS have partnered to provide a pilot program to lend both internet hotspots and devices to those in need. WILS has donated 6 internet-ready devices to be made available to Library patrons in conjunction with the Library’s new Hotspot Lending Program. A library card is all that is needed to access both tools.

To celebrate the partnership, WILS and Trails Regional Library will host community days, bringing the devices and wireless internet to parking lots of the library and senior centers. The second Community Day will be held at the John Knox Village East & Meyer Care Center parking lot, located at 1201 W 19th St. in Higginsville, on Friday May 14 from 11am to 1pm.

Visitors can apply for library cards, use wireless internet, check out devices, and browse a selection of library materials with assistance from WILS and the Library’s Public Technology Assistants.
