Technology Help
Need help using your laptop or iPad? Want to create a Facebook profile but don’t know how to get started? Did you get a new smartphone and don't know how to use it? We can help! Stop in at the Mechanicsburg Public Library and work one-on-one with a Technology Trainer.
A Trainer is available Tuesday 10:00-6:00 and Friday 10:00-2:00. At this time, you can just drop in during the times she is at the library.
There may be times someone is not available due to sickness or other obligations, so you may want to call 937-834-2004 to confirm someone is available before you make a trip to the library. You can also check our online event calendar. The trainer's schedule will be updated on the calendar as needed.
The trainer was hired by all three library systems in the county through a grant and will be available at various locations throughout the week.
