Throughout May and June the Library is trialling the introduction of weekly Computer Classes with the aim of sharing basic computing hints and tips in a relaxed and comfortable environment.
Hoi, the Library’s e-Services Librarian will be available to give you tips to improve your computing skills whatever the need may be e.g. setting up an email account, searching online databases, formatting documents.
The classes will be held on Wednesday afternoons from 2.00pm to 4.00pm in the Library Meeting Room. You are welcome to drop in for as long as you like, even if for only five minutes to have a simple query answered.
Participants must have basic mouse and keyboard skills and be a current Library member.

On Friday 18 December 2009 the Library will be hosting a Christmas Storytime for preschool aged children from 11am – 12noon.
Past experience has shown that the Library will be a bit noisier than usual during this time.
Please bear with us while our regular storytime participants celebrate the end of the year and possibly their last visit to the Library’s preschool storytime before starting school in 2010.
