We have one. It doesn't get us a lot more traffic, but a little; and it makes 
the catalog available even if a lot of Hebrew School parents use it for job 
hunting. The big consideration we had was to make sure that it wasn't on the 
synagogue network, for security reasons. This means that I have to manually 
transport our catalog to the public computer on a flash drive every couple of 
weeks, but it's no biggie; and if the catalog is small enough to email, you can 
do that too.

Subject: [ha-Safran] adding patron computers
 

Library committee members and I have discussed the possibility of adding 
computers to the synagogue library so that congregants can do research here. I 
really need something to increase foot traffic. I am looking for advice as to 
whether this is a good idea and the kinds of things that I need to consider. 
Thanks,
