Bocagetom Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I am spending much of July and August in a farmhouse near St. Lo.I will need internet access and it seems the last one there burned down. I know a good one at Granville but that is further than i would ideally like to travel.Does anyonme know if the library in St Lo is worth a visit or if there is anywhere closer. Many thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisb Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 [:)]Yes the St Lo main library (at Place du Champ de Mars) offers internet access.However unlike UK libraries it looks as if they have a subscription charge for surfers - it's 20 Euros for a year - or you can pay as you go for one Euro per hour. I would advise taking about a dozens proofs of ID with you - librarians are nice people but this is France! There also doesn't seem to be an advance booking system.You can e.mail the library : mediatheque@saint-lo.fr Additional note - I've just noticed that the library closes for the last week in July and first week in August for staff holidays. Good luck - and how great to spend 2 whole months in the area. We're going over next week but can only manage 12 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 Planet R on the main drag in Saint Lo has internet access. About halfway up the hill on the right, just after the traffic lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
