Need help learning how to use a smartphone, tablet or other new tech tool? Have questions about email, writing a document, or setting up a social media account? The library is here to help!
We offer free, 30 minute one-on-one, goal-based tech help by appointment, and if your issue is beyond our skills we’ll try to find outside help for you. We offer appointments on the following days/times:
Mondays – 9:30 AM, 10:00 AM, 10:30 AM, 1:00 PM, 1:30 PM, and 2:00 PM.
Tuesdays – 3:00 PM, 3:30 PM, and 4:00 PM.
Give us a call at (262) 723-2678 to make your appointment. In order to make sure there are enough appointments for everyone, you can make a maximum of two appointments per month. If you’re a new student, the librarian will work with you to figure out your goals in the first appointment.
