TWO FREE TECHNOLOGY CLASSES

Tuesday, September 24 - 7:00 pm
& Sunday, October 20 - 3:30 p.m.

What good is that electronic gadget you’re carrying around if you can’t make it work? Do you own an iPhone, iPad, iPod, or android device that baffles and aggravates you? Help is on the way at Crowell Library! An eager group of tech-savvy students from San Marino High School has volunteered to meet with people to try to help them figure these gadgets out. The sessions are unstructured and the students will try to democratically divide their time in helping attendees overcome obstacles with these devices. Time may be limited on your particular question, depending on the number of people who attend.

The class is well suited for seniors or anyone who needs help. Be sure to bring your device and go to the Thornton Conference Room upstairs at the Library.
