Public WiFi Hotspots in Vermont

The Department of Public Service prepared a map of public buildings in Vermont where WiFi with access to the internet is publicly available as a resource for remote learning and working from home. These sites are accessible at all hours from a parked vehicle on the road or parking lot.  As a COVID-19 safety precaution, we discourage users from entering the premises or congregating outside.  These sites should be accessed from within a parked vehicle. This information was compiled through an email survey of schools, libraries, and town offices conducted in March 2020.

Many thanks to the Vermont Department of Libraries, Vermont Agency of Education, Vermont Agency of Commerce and Community Development, Front Porch Forum, and every Vermont Regional Planning Commission for their assistance acquiring and confirming the data on this map.

If a password for the WiFi network was provided, you can view it by clicking on the icon for the hotspot location. On the map, buildings are depicted in four colors, as shown in the legend in the upper right of the page:

• Green: public
• Yellow: password required
• Red: none
• Black: possible

The Department will continue to update this map as new information is received.  If you manage one of these sites and would like to update the information or if you know of another site that should be included, please submit new or updated information via this form. 

Be cautious of your security when on a public network. There are some great tips here: https://usa.kaspersky.com/resource-center/preemptive-safety/public-wifi and on the Deptarment of Pubic Services’ website.
