New Year - New Gear!

The library will be holding a “New Year – New Gear” Technology Fair on Saturday, January 29, 2011 from 1-3 p.m. in the main lobby of the library.

The library has recently purchased an iPad, eReaders, and an iPod to provide hands-on experience for patrons in using these new technologies and to fully benefit from the new library resources that are available. Library staff will offer help sessions to download audio books and eBooks to a home computer or to an iPod. Demonstrations of new children’s technologies like BookFlix, Tag, and Interactive Books will be taking place as well throughout the afternoon. Patrons can also register for UniversalClass™, a site that offers non-credit courses covering a wide range of topics. Other services, such as online registration for adult programs and the library’s weekly e-newsletter will be discussed as well.

Registration is not required for this event, and patrons are encouraged to drop by the library during the afternoon hours to take advantage of this special program to assist them with their technology questions. For more information, call the library at 724.941.9430.
