PASADENA, CA, April 18, 2014 (Press-News.org) Lots of people have their own iPods, Androids, tablets, iPhones, and other devices, but they can't figure out some of the features. The teen volunteers are pretty familiar with many of the concepts behind these devices, so even if they haven't used a particular device, they may be able to help a person figure out what to do. The Library works with teens to try to match them up with those who are perplexed with their gadgets. During a similar session in April, patrons were quite pleased with the assistance they received from these service-oriented teenagers.
If you are frustrated with online support options, come to Crowell Library and work with a living, breathing techie that will help you "bond" with your device. There's nothing like one-on-one assistance to help solve problems and tackle sticky widgets. To reserve your spot for this program and to match volunteers with patrons and types of devices, please call 626-300-0777, extension 579 to make a reservation as soon as possible. There are a limited number of teen volunteers, so slots will fill quickly!
