Two New Free Computer Classes at TPL July 5, 2009

Two new computer classes begin at the Tigard Public Library in July. The Library will offer "Getting Started with the Library Web Catalog" on Friday, July 10, from 2-3 p.m. and again on Tuesday, July 21, from 6:30-7:30 p.m.

Another new class "Getting Started with Skype" will begin on Thursday, July 23, from 2-3 p.m.  Previously, the Library encouraged patrons interested in Skype to visit one of its open computer labs. Patrons can learn to use Skype to send and receive free or inexpensive telephone calls to any other Skype user throughout the world.  

The Library continues to offer Spanish translation at some of its computer classes.  In July Spanish translators will be available on Tuesday, July 28, for the "Getting Started with Computers" class from 7-8:30 p.m.  A Spanish translator will also be available on Thursday, July 30, for the "Getting Started with Windows" class from 1:30-3 p.m.  Both classes will also be taught in English.

Classes are held in the second-floor Technology Room.  They are free. Attendees should stop by the Reference Desk to pick up a ticket.  Questions?  Please call 503-684-6537 ext. 2517.
