Good afternoon all, I've had a couple of patrons asking if there are any libraries that offer typewriters for public use. Most seem to be patrons who are not computer literate who are hoping to use them to do their taxes. Are their any libraries in the Metro Detroit area that offer this service?

Hey there, I have heard from librarians at the Ann Arbor District Library and the Plymouth District Library, that there are typewriters there for patrons to use.
