Individual Computer Instruction

Effective February 1, 2006:
Classes for Highland Park residents will be free; please present proof of residency or library card.
Non-resident fee is $20.00 per class.

Learn to use the Library’s electronic resources at your own pace and comfort level.  Make an appointment for a half-hour session with a Reference Librarian today.
