Technology
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.
