Digital Literacy Workshops
The Gibsonville Public Library has been awarded a PLA Digital Literacy Workshop Incentive Grant supported by AT&T. This grant will make it possible for the library to offer digital literacy workshops at which the attendees who complete the 2-hour sessions at the library will take home a free laptop. There will be a Spanish language workshop on Saturday October 7th 12:00-2:00, and an English language workshop on Saturday October 21st 12:30-2:30. To register, visit giblib.org/freepc.
