Starting the new year with a clean slate is easier when your phone, tablet, or computer works the way you want it to. Join our free workshop at Wrenford Public Library — Main Branch for one-on-one time with a friendly staff member who can walk you through your questions.

This session is designed for seniors and anyone who feels a little nervous about technology. We will cover basic topics like:

  • Setting up email and secure passwords
  • Adjusting text size and volume on your phone
  • Downloading the library app and managing your account
  • Keeping your device safe from scams

Bring your own device if you have one, or use a library computer. The staff will show you how to find settings and explain what the buttons do in plain language. If you have a specific app or feature that is giving you trouble, write it down and bring it with you.
