The computers in the Family Learning Center have fun and educational games intended for kids in preschool through 6th grade.  Not only is this a fun and free activity kids can do when you visit the library, but it is also a great way to preview software before you purchase it for your personal collections.  Call (248) 618-7692 to reserve some time on the computers, or stop by on a first-come first-serve basis.  All computer users need a library card in order to reserve and to use our computers.  Computers are available for up to one hour.  The computers are available when the library opens, and automatically shut down 15 minutes before the library closes.  All computers print from our color laser printer.  Users are allowed 5 free copies a day, then each copy is 10 cents a sheet thereafter.
