About the Series » Technology Tutoring

A library employee helps a patron learn a new skill on a computer during a Tech Tutoring session

Technology Tutoring sessions are for all levels of computer users and offer a chance to sit down with a staff member for 30 minutes of free computer assistance. Laptops are available for use and the sessions take place in a quiet area of the library. Whether you’d like help mastering the job search, downloading ebooks and audiobooks, or refreshing your basic computer skills, our half-hour tutoring sessions might be the place to turn.

Here are some examples of tutoring topics that PPL offers through this program:

  • Basic Computer Skills
