ARNOLD AIR FORCE BASE, Tenn. -- The AEDC Technical Library at Arnold Air Force Base has a new charging station provided by Air Force Libraries featuring 10 lockers, which will enable AEDC team members to securely charge their electronic devices.

Each of the lockers has three cords that are compatible with most Apple or Android phones or tablets. There is also an outlet in the lockers for charging laptops.

Those who take advantage of the charging station can also do so without fear that someone will take their device. By following the instructions found on the charging station, a code can be set to lock the stall until the owner of the device returns to retrieve it.

Jean Frantz, librarian at the AEDC Technical Library, located in the Administrative and Engineering Building, Building 100, invites anyone interested in using the charging station to come to the library for a demonstration.

“Your device doesn’t have to be government or company-issued,” she said. “People can feel free to charge their personal devices. Every Air Force library is getting one of these and I hope we get a lot of use of the charging station at Arnold.”
