Open House December 7th

The Sargent Library recently received 4 new computers and furnishings through the Library Broadband Builds Nebraska Communities project. The purpose of this grant was to help give a boost to struggling, rural communities. The computers are installed and ready for use by the public. The computers can be used free of charge to access court records, find health information, take advantage of educational opportunities, hunt for jobs, explore small business options, etc. The computers and furnishings are valued at over $8000.

 Next Wednesday (Dec. 7th) we will have an open house at the library from 1:00 – 7:00. I would like to strongly encourage all people in the area to come see our computing center. I am looking for ideas on how this computing center could be used to help improve the community. It would be nice to be able to offer some classes at the library.  The library could be used by any small group of up to 6 people where each person needs to be at a computer.

Come with some ideas and think outside the box.
