October is Computer Learning Month & National Family History Month


Did you know that the library offers a variety of FREE ways to learn about computers and other technology?

First, we have friendly staff members very knowledgeable about all sorts of technology. They are ready and willing to help you learn about technology, troubleshoot a problem with you, or guide you to the right resources.

Second, we have various technology classes at branches throughout the parish each month. You can even Book a Librarian for one-on-one classes that will flow at YOUR pace. We highly recommend you Book a Librarian, as it allows us to make sure we can give you undivided attention.

Third, we have BOOKS about all kinds of technology that you can check out and take home to learn at your leisure!

So if you are baffled by a computer or some other form of technology, drop by or call your closest library branch and ask for our help. We are here to serve you.

Speaking of technology, we would love to teach you how to use the Ancestry.com database in honor of National Family History Month. Look for various Ancestry.com related programs and activities happening close to you this month!
