Help with Getting Online

If you are a York resident and unable to watch online events at home, you can book a computer at your local Explore York Library where free Festival earbud headphones are also available.

York residents unable to watch York Festival of Ideas digital events at home are welcome to book a computer at any Explore York Library where free Festival earbud headphones are also available.

You’ll need to book a Public Access Computer in advance to ensure that one is available.  You can book online or alternatively ring your local library on one of the numbers below. Please make sure you have your library card number and pin number handy as you will need these to book. You’ll also need your card and pin numbers when you visit the library to use the computer. 

If you don’t have a library card you can sign up for one online or call in at your local library. Make sure to write down the card number and pin number as you’ll need them to book your computer. 

When you arrive at the library to listen to your chosen event, ask the staff for free York Festival of Ideas earbud headphones so that you can log in and listen without being disturbed. You may then keep these for future use.
