Pass the word. Computer tech skills are necessary in today's digital world of job application submissions, school registrations, online ed, research, knowledge building, and access to information. It's never too late. Utilize this opportunity to help build your resume or profile in your search for whatever you're looking for that means something to you in this life. Tighten up your game, do it for your yourself, your dreams, and your health...especially mental. Utilize the library as your school of thought especially if money is a barrier to access a college education. There are ways to create our own opportunities to knowledge. Never let access get old, especially when the resources are free. Branigan Library has been providing free computer classes since the beginning of the year and I anticipate more opportunities will be available in the future. @vbwclass
