[ISLMA-Share] Kajeet hotspots

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Hi Kristine,
Both libraries in Hinsdale District 86 started checking out Kajeet hotspots for students this year. The devices are purchased and managed by our Technology department. The library is simply monitoring the check in/check out of the devices.
Let me know if you have other questions.

Subject: [ISLMA-Share] Kajeet hotspots

Hi everyone,

Does anyone use Kajeet hotspots in their schools?  The latest email from this company says that libraries check them out to students just like books.  The student takes the hotspot home to provide internet access for school assignments.  This is to help address the needs of students with no internet.

I contacted the company but they while they say schools in Illinois use their product, they don't give out a list of schools in Illinois.

Thanks in advance,
