New technology means that information isn’t just in books anymore, so the Sidney-Richland County Library is here to help you learn how to use the tools that will help you find what you need, and share with others. Every month, we try to offer one or two sessions that will help you do research, stay in touch with friends and family, and learn skills that can help you in your job or business. In February and March, we have four exciting programs, starting with a two-hour session on the basics of Facebook and Twitter on Feb. 14 from 9-11a.m. If you want to learn how to get started with social media, this is the Tech Tuesday for you. We’ll cover the basics of Facebook and Twitter, and get you ready to share pictures, updates and more with family, friends and the whole world! Social media tools are also a popular way to market your business or group, and stay in touch with customers or volunteers, so this course has something for everyone. If you want to attend, please call 433-1917 to RSVP, because space is limited.
Later in February and March, we will offer three other courses covering Microsoft Word and Excel for business users, the computer basics, and an introduction to digital photography (taught by Elaine Stedman). The Word/Excel course will cover topics including mail merges, basic Excel functions, and using and customizing templates on Feb. 28 from 8:30 a.m.-noon. Computer Basics 101 is an eight-hour course that will take you from the very beginning (turning it on) to setting up an e-mail account, browsing the web with confidence, and knowing how to manage your data and make backups. Computer Basics 101 meets on March 6, 8, 13, 15 from 9-11 a.m. Finally, Intro to Digital Photography will be taught by Elaine Stedman on March 27 from 6:30-8:30 p.m., and offer you a chance to handle some different cameras, learn to how to improve your picture-taking, and download and edit photos on your computer.
