The interest and need for computer instruction continues unabated. Lake City PL began a new series of computer classes in January. Michele is coordinating and teaching classes that blend traditional topics like WORD and EXCEL with trendier topics like Using the Internet for Travel, Advanced Email, Genealogy on the Web, and Internet Safety & Security. Classes run 2 hours and attendance is limited to 6 people.
We’d love to hear more topic ideas and strategies from other libraries providing computer instruction. Who’s offering classes on using digital cameras or demonstrating great websites for parents and kids? Who’s explaining blogs or acquainting parents and grandparents with social networking sites like MySpace and YouTube? NWILS Bulletin Board Blog is a great forum to share these and other ideas!

We at Le Mars have also just begun a series of computer courses. There are five in all, and we offer one every other week:
Computer Comfort - basic hardware identification, etc.
Intro to the Internet
Email Basics
Word Processing & Printing
Online Safety
Classes are taught by me or Brenda Haverhals, our Circulation Librarian. On the class evaluations we're also asking for feedback & other areas of interest, such as digital photography, eBay, rss/blogs, and so on.
