Locate icon for flash drive on Windows
#4
What Rolando listed might only work for a typical home machine. The library machines will likely not automatically mount external drives as a way to help reduce malware infections. There is a preferences option to pre-select what is done with drives. Default users might be forbidden to change it without being granted Admin privileges.

How are you at navigating between discs at the Windows Command Prompt? This is one of several ways to list drives.

Move cursor to lower left corner (or wherever the Start icon is on the Taskbar), type "command" and hit [Enter]. At the command prompt, type:
C:\Users\UserName>wmic logicaldisk get name [Enter]

This is one of those situations where I could immediately tell you what to do looking at the screen, but would take half an hour to preload you with instructions on how to do it on your own without any prior experience.
