During this class, students will explore how to create and edit a Word document, while becoming familiar with the general tools of the program (based on the 2007 edition of the software). Although this class will cover only the basics, registrants must be able to use a mouse.
Microsoft Word Part 2 – Monday, 9/18 at 10:30am. Explore topics relating to the MS Word program. It is recommended you attend part one, or have some familiarity with Word, before taking this class.
Using eBooks and Library Apps – Monday, 9/25 at 10:30am. Have you ever checked out an eBook from the library? We have two different apps through which to use eBooks: Hoopla and CloudLibrary. If you want an in-depth lesson on how to access the digital collection, this class is for you. We will also cover searching the catalogue and managing your account. You must be able to use a mouse and be familiar with basic computer concepts such as opening, closing, and re-sizing windows before taking this class.
