The Stony Plain Public library has 14 computers for public use and 1 search computer that allows patrons to search almost any library holding in all of Alberta (patrons are then able to order material from across the province through interlibrary loan). The library connected to the Alberta SuperNet in 2006, which now allows the possibility of web conferencing and training/programming originating from any location in the world.

Famous quotes containing the word technology:
“The real accomplishment of modern science and technology consists in taking ordinary men, informing them narrowly and deeply and then, through appropriate organization, arranging to have their knowledge combined with that of other specialized but equally ordinary men. This dispenses with the need for genius. The resulting performance, though less inspiring, is far more predictable.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
“One can prove or refute anything at all with words. Soon people will perfect language technology to such an extent that they’ll be proving with mathematical precision that twice two is seven.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
