Computers are back online at Ancaster branch as of yesterday. Am using one of them today and I have so missed desktop computers! The Alerts notice on Hpl.ca is stale-dated at the bottom to Tues Oct 15, despite today's date appear at the top of the alert notice in red. Have sent a post via X to update.

I have not been able to see likes on the tablet since summer so it is grand to see all likes, reps and comments easily! Expect me to be here tomorrow.
