This event will take place in person at The Washington Heights Library.

Technology should make your life easier, not more difficult.

Join a staff member to work on those problematic tech issues that so often inconvenience us.

We can guide you to find answers to some of your questions, or teach you some new skills that can help empower you. Let us help make digital tools work for you, not against you.

Some of the topics you can ask us about are:

  • creating an email account 

  • sending attachments via email

  • practicing with the keyboard and mouse

  • browsing the Internet, and using a search engine

  • using Google or Microsoft applications

  • converting documents to a  PDF format

  • downloading eBooks and Audiobooks

 

Call for more information (212) 923-6054.

Register by phone or in person.  Each session is up to 30 minutes.

Appointments will meet in person at the library.
