There are new PC workstations in the public area of the #TIB. The client itself had to be based on Win 10, but I have used a lot of free and #opensource software: Login works with pGina, a foss replacement for Credential Provider (and GINA) to authenticate with the #library card on Windows. Browser is #Firefox and I use @libreoffice, SumatraPDF as a PDF and eBook reader, NAPS2 with Tesseract for automated text recognition (OCR), VLC Media Player and of course Notepad++.
