Program Description

Event Details

Today's Topic:  Make Your Device Work for You
Frustrated with your phone? Thinking about buying a new one, or a tablet or other device? We'll discuss how to check your current device's capabilities and limitations, ways to adjust its settings to work better, what to look for if you do need a new device, and resources for lower-cost phones and laptops.

We want the Library to be your happy place.  All older adults (55+) are invited to join in for some special community time each week.  We’ll talk and share interests, enjoy guest speakers, and keep ourselves active, engaged, and well-informed.

Funds for this program were provided in part through an award from AgeOptions through funding from the American Rescue Plan Act.
