Well looky here, will you?

Guess which public library system around town no longer appears to be ashamed of the fact that its locations are all unwired.  

Took them long enough, if you ask me.  About a year and a half, I think.

Now how much longer do you think it'll be before they provide a bit of useful information to prospective users-like the SSID, maybe?  Or the fact that access is free and open to everyone?  A short how-to-connect tutorial for new and inexperienced laptop owners might also be appreciated.  And, of course, adding the standard declaration and disclaimer that the relevant portions of the library's acceptable use policy apply to Wi-Fi users and that they're on their own as far as tech support and security are concerned would serve to keep the lawyers happy-which is why I'd look for this last change to show up well before the next website makeover.
