Free Digital Literacy Assistance Can Be Found At The Southeast Steuben County Library!

Linda Reimer

Did you know that if you live locally you can obtain free digital literacy assistance at the Southeast Steuben County Library?

 

You can!

 

And if you’re pondering what exactly I mean by digital literacy assistance let me explain!

 

Digital literacy is simply fancy computer-speak that translated into everyday American English means we assist patrons in learning how to use their tablets, e-readers, laptops, smartphones and other tech devices.

 

For example, some of the items we assist patrons in learning how to include learning how to:

 

  • Use the iPad to access the Internet, send & receive email, get apps from the App Store and more!

 

  • Create a free e-mail account, send & receive email

 

  • Use Microsoft Word to type letters, resumes and other documents

 

  • Use Microsoft PowerPoint to create slideshows and presentations

 

  • Use Skype to make video phone calls

 

  • Use the Internet to search for information

 

  • Learn to use the e-reader, laptop or tablet your kids gave you for your birthday

 

  • And more!

 

To learn how to use your new gadget or software simply call the library and make an appointment for a free One-On-One session with a member of the library’s Digital Literacy Services team – Linda (that’s me!) or Jenn.

 

We can be reached by phone at the following number: 607-936-3713 ext. 502

 

Or you can send an email to us at: DIGLIT@STLS.ORG

 

Have a great Tuesday!

P.S. If you don’t live locally you can still access our blog for instructional material regarding computer, tablet and e-reader usage – simply go to our Tech Talk blog located at: https://sscltech.wordpress.com/ and click on the Online Tech Tutorials link. I’ll be adding more documents to that section later today!
