It actually depends on the Library.  Here's a few links I got from
googling "図書館 パソコン":

This guy made a hobby of visiting all libraries in Tokyo and he said
some allows it and some don't.

Minato-ku Libraries have special corners/rooms for PC use, and some of
them even provides electric outlets for PCs.

Fukuoka-shi Libraries explicitly states that PC use in general seats
is not allowed (well, "we politely request you not to" in Japanese), but
they do have PC corners/rooms too.
