The Library's Tech to Go service won't be rolling around the Cedar Rapids area yet but you can take one of its classes. Join us for a virtual class and get one-on-one help with the info covered.
A video tutorial will be posted to the Library's Facebook and Youtube Channel that covers a few basic skills necessary to get started with the featured software. Additionally, participants can sign-up for a one-on-one virtual session to answer specific questions or go over more advanced tools. A gmail account is necessary to use the Google Drive products (Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Sites). Participants who wish to sign-up for the virtual one-on-one help will need to have a smartphone or computer with an internet connection to participate. A link will be provided to those who sign-up for one-on-one help.
