The Cambridge Public Library Foundation, a non-profit fundraising organization dedicated to supporting the Cambridge Public Library, today announced that it has received a $50,000 grant from Google.  This is the Library Foundation’s first grant from Google, and the funds will be used to create a mobile computing Tech Bar at the Main Library (449 Broadway), replacing some of the fixed-position desktop PCs with flexible seating and mobile computing options. The Tech Bar will be staffed by knowledgeable library staff, and allow patrons to check out laptops, tablets, mobile hotspots and other devices and get help with tech-related questions from staff.
