Planning to head to a Hillsborough County Public Library today to get some work done online? You might want to think twice.

According to the library system, a power outage at the main library in downtown Tampa is to blame for the spotty Internet access found now at branches throughout the county. In addition, the library system’s website, hcplc.org, is also down.

Despite the Internet glitches, libraries remain open, according to a media release. Visitors can still select and check out books and other materials.

Libraries in the Seminole Heights area affected are:

• Seminole Heights Branch Library, 4711 N Central Ave.

• North Tampa Branch Library, 8916 N Boulevard

Stay with Patch for updates as they become available.
