Training & Courses
IT Questions and Answers Sessions It is quite a challenge to keep up-to-date with technology. We are offering free individual instruction sessions at all three libraries. Please note there are no set classes planned until June as we are changing our computer system. Were you given a gadget for a present but are not sure how to use it? Having a problem using a computer programme, email, the internet, eBooks etc? Book a one-to-one 45 minute session with a staff member. Bring your questions, problems or gadgets. To book a free Q & A session, ask library staff or contact Ross on 06 871 5180. |

Sessions are under a half hour each, so covering all topics may take more than one session, depending on your needs. Ask at the desk about these sessions - we have staff who can show you how to use your mobile. Read more... Unwanted mobile phone?
