One on One Tech Help

One on One Tech Help is an appointment only service for patrons who are in need of personalized assistance with basic tech needs.

These one on one appointments are facilitated by experienced Tech Helpers.  This free service is best used for more in-depth instruction on how to use the library’s digital resources, databases, business research for entrepreneurs, general computer help, internet skills, creating a website, digital portfolios, and social media management.

This service is used as a follow up to enhance the information and resources demonstrated in the various classes the library makes available.  Click here to view the library’s calendar to find a listing of classes currently being offered at all 6 of our library branches.

Typical sessions may include:

  • Overview of library collection, services and website
  • Researching a single topic using library databases
  • Computer Skills
  • Creating and managing files and folders using Microsoft Office Suite and Google Docs
  • Internet basics, browsers and social media
  • Setting up new technology devices (laptops, smartphones, PDAs, tablets, iPads, etc.)
