Library Technology Fair this Saturday

Learn all about interactive books, Playaways, downloadable audiobooks and more at a Technology Fair to be held at the Peters Township Public Library on Saturday, September 12, 2009 from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. in the main lobby.

Staff members will offer hands-on demonstrations of the library’s many new materials. The Young Adult Department will introduce over 50 new video games to be made available for 7-day checkout, and a free pair of earbuds will be given to persons attending the fair. Online resources to be featured will include the library’s online catalog, Rosetta Stone Language Learning, ConsumerReports.org, e-newsletter, and Twitter account. The self-checkout system for books will also be highlighted.

“We want to ensure that all of our patrons are aware of the many free services that our library has to offer,” says Pier Lee, Library Director. “We want them to be comfortable using these new devices and take full advantage of them in their busy lives, especially as we begin a new school year.”

No registration is required for this event.
