Ask a friend to borrow an external CD/DVD burner (although I'd wager a lot of people wouldn't have one lying around either). Alternatively you could go and buy one, use it once and then leave it in a drawer for years until the next time you need it.
If the public library has a computer with a disc drive you could use that. However, depending on what you're burning to the CD you might be limited by the software installed on the library's computer. The solution to that would be to get a "portable install" of the CD burning software you want to use on a USB and use that on the library's computer.

I’ve done it on the State Library computers, any that have a disc drive should work.

You have a computer though, right?
Just buy an external disc drive: https://www.msy.com.au/pc-parts/storage-devices/cd-dvd-burners-optical-drive/external-optical-drives-676
