All branches in the system have public access Internet computers with basic word processing and other software. Patrons using computers, by signature, must agree to and abide by the Internet Usage Agreement. If under the age of 18, the signature of a parent or guardian must be obtained. Children, 12 and under, must be accompanied by an adult who has signed the Internet Usage Agreement.

All computers in the TRLs System are filtered through the Mississippi Library Commission according to the Children's Information Protection Act. Even though filtered, users must exercise judgment in evaluating the validity and appropriateness of information obtained via the Internet and must assume responsibility for its use.
