You will need a Pharos account to add yourself to the queue for a library computer. Once you have an account you can add yourself to the queue at a Pharos station in the library.
- You can only be on the queue for a computer at the library you are in. You may not add yourself to the queue at one library for another library.
- You may not add yourself to the queue in advance.
- You will have to complete your first queued session before you can add yourself to the queue again.
There is no charge for adding yourself to the queue and using a library computer - Pharos is just used for managing the queue and for payments for printing/copying.
Pharos queues at Tūranga
Because Tūranga has public computers available over five floors Pharos queues will work in the following way -
