Lincoln Co. Library announces tech upgrades, classes

Lincoln County Library has announced several upgrades and updates to technology offerings.

First, Ethan Hoff, Technology Specialist, will be hosting tech classes on topics identified in the Technology Services Community Survey.

“Safe Browsing and Privacy” will be offered Sept. 13 (Libby), Sept. 15 (Eureka), Sept. 20 (Libby) and Sept. 22 (Troy).

All classes begin at 11 a.m.

Following the classes, Hoff will also host “Ask a Tech” hours from noon to 2 p.m. This will be a time to ask Ethan any questions about technology and get one-on-one help with your personal devices.

Along with the technology classes, Lincoln County Library has purchased new tech for the public to experience and explore.

A full-sized 3D printer is available at the Libby Branch and a mini 3D printer will travel between the Troy and Eureka Branches.

The public is welcome to create and print their own designs after an introductory session with Ethan. A virtual reality headset will be available to the public beginning in September.

Due to the space requirements of this technology, it will only be offered at the Libby branch.
