Drop-In Computer Help

Computer help at Rockridge Branch on Saturday morning

On Saturday, September 12, from 10 am to noon, Oakland Public Library Rockridge Branch is setting aside time for people who want help with everyday computer tasks.

The branch on College Avenue has that familiar Rockridge feel: calm, practical, and easy to settle into for an hour. It is the kind of library where you can bring a question, sit down, and work through it without feeling rushed.

The volunteer computer tutors are the featured helpers for the morning. They can help with setting up email, building a resume, searching job listings, using the web, and other basics that can get frustrating when you are doing them alone.

This is a good stop if you have been putting off a small tech task, helping a family member get started online, or trying to get your job search materials in better shape. Bring your library card if you have one, plus any usernames, passwords, or documents you might need.

Volunteer schedules can shift, so it is smart to call the branch before heading over.
