Technology Training

Receive technology training from the comfort of your own home or in the library through AnyDesk, a secure remote desktop software.

Special software installed on your computer or mobile device allows the trainer to see your screen and guide you through the training session. The software is easy to install and library staff can help you prepare your device for screen sharing.

Home internet access and a phone is required for an at-home training session. Trainers will conduct the training over the phone while viewing your computer or device screen.

If you do not have home internet access and a phone, or if you do not have a computer or mobile device, training sessions can be conducted at the library using library equipment. If using your device in the library, screen sharing software is required and your device must be able to connect to the internet.

The library’s technology training is focused on specific needs related to working on a device or learning a specific aspect of a software or app. For more in-depth training, please refer to the collection of self-paced courses available with your library card on Universal Class.
