Copies of the book for you to check out on your library account are available at Maxwell’s front desk one month before the meeting. Some titles may also be available through Libby or Hoopla, or as audiobooks. Newcomers and non-knitters welcome!

Tech Help Tuesdays

  • Are your apps not behaving?
  • Are your passwords getting out of control?
  • Do you have questions about whether to install the latest system upgrade?
  • Or are there other things about your tech devices you'd like to learn about or get straightened out?

Every Tuesday, Pete—Maxwell’s tech librarian—has an open session for drop-in assistance with technology issues and problems.
Whether your questions are about something new, something new to you, or something that’s been on your mind for a while, stop by at our Reference Desk for one-on-one help.
Questions before you stop in? Email Pete at pete@maxwellmemoriallibrary.org.

Free. No registration.
