Big THANK YOU to the Evansville Best Buy for giving us a terrific Technology Fair last week on Friday.

The most popular session was all about Tablets and being able to play with them was fantastic.  Had no idea that the Tablets did SO MUCH and can do SO MUCH.  No lines at all and we were able to ask all the questions we wanted.

Best Buy Staff patiently answered every question during every session and even fielded questions from previous sessions when they came up.  Learned all about various e-readers, upcoming games, new gaming systems, cell phone options; both android and i-Phone, and flat screen and plasma televisions.  Can’t say it enough – LEARNED SO MUCH!

Being able to “touch” that stuff and store representatives to yourself was awesome.  Many people stayed for several sessions.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

Have you prepared your holiday list yet?  What does all that “stuff” exactly do?  Or better still, what doesn’t it do?  You need to know in order to make good choices.  Well, we’re hosting a Technology Fair with Best Buy here at Central Library on Friday November 2 to help you sort this out.   Here’s the schedule of topics and times:

Tablets – Noon

E-Readers – 1pm

Cell Phones – 2pm

Gaming & Entertainment – 3pm

Connected World – 4pm

Each session lasts about an hour and you’ll have a chance to ask questions and learn “all about it”.  Why is one thing better than another – what does what, etc.  Sometimes it’s hard to remember to ask all your questions in a store setting – this will be much more relaxed and hopefully, informative.

Bring your questions and get answers.

No need to pre-register – just come on over to the session/s you want.  You will receive a ticket for every session you choose to attend and there is a grand prize drawing at the end of the day – winner need not be present to win.  It’s a pretty terrific grand prize – but I won’t tell you about this today.

So get ready – the holidays will be here before you know it!

OTPLS Central Library adults knit at noon every Tuesday in the Dragonfly Cafe.  Bring your lunch (or try the Library’s Dragonfly Cafe’s yummy food) and your latest project to knit, show off or solve.  Join our resident knitting librarians and other knitters to share the joy of knitting with fellow enthusiasts.  All skill levels are welcome.  Do you like to crochet instead of knit?  We welcome you, too.   Drop in and and join us – we’re a stitch!
