Instead check out the videos our IT Librarian Denise (yes, that’s me!) posted on the Library’s Facebook or the Library’s YouTube page . I covered topics like sanitizing phones, working with flash drives, and checking out our virtual materials. Don’t see the answer to your question? Search our Tech Help page on the website or setup a virtual one-on-one appointment via zoom. Details are on the webpage.
