Computer help at Rockridge Branch Library
If your laptop, email, resume, or job search has been giving you a headache, the Rockridge Branch of the Oakland Public Library has a simple Saturday morning option.
On Saturday, July 25, from 10:00 AM to noon, volunteer computer tutors will be available in the library computer lab at Oakland Public Library: Rockridge Branch, 5366 College Ave.
This is the kind of local library help that can be easy to miss but very useful. The tutors can help with basic computer tasks like setting up an email account, working on a resume, looking through job listings, browsing the internet, and getting more comfortable using the library computers.
The Rockridge Branch has that steady neighborhood library feel. Quiet tables, helpful staff, people coming in from College Ave, and a pace that makes it easier to ask questions without feeling rushed.
There are no performers here, just patient volunteers who know how to help with everyday tech problems. That can be just what you need if you have been stuck on one small thing that keeps turning into a bigger thing.
Volunteer schedules can change, so it is smart to call the library before you go and make sure a tutor will be there.
Volunteer computer tutors are available to help you with basic tasks during your daily hour in the library computer lab. They can help you set up an e-mail account, make a resume, search job listings, internet surfing and more.
Volunteer schedules can change frequently so feel free to call the library to verify that the computer tutor is here.
