This class introduces first-time computer users to computer basics and gives practical tips for using social media.<\/p>\n

The pace of the class will be adjusted to attendees in the class and there will be plenty of time for questions and one-on-one time.<\/p>\n

The classes are especially an opportunity for seniors who may be more comfortable learning in a relaxed-pace environment and who need basic computer skills and are also interested in using Facebook to connect with loved ones.<\/p>\n

Every Friday, starting on June 17th, there will be a basic computer and social media skills class from 3:30pm to 5:30pm presented by the council.<\/p>\n

Registration is not required but it is preferred. Call the Adult Literacy Council to guarantee a spot in the class at 931.542.5046.<\/p>\n

The Adult Literacy Council is a non-profit that has been helping members of the community through literacy and computer tutoring for years. They offer free one-on-one and small-group sessions on English and basic computer skills, as well as preparation for the High School Equivalency Test.<\/p>\n

The public library is just one of the many locations where they offer their services.<\/p>\n

The Clarksville-Montgomery County Public Library is partnering with the adult literacy organization as part of its mission to champion learning and reading, ignite imaginations and deliver access to information and ideas.<\/p>\n
