Social Media Workshops
Thursdays, 1-2:30 pm: Basics—October 22; Facebook—October 29; Twitter—November 5; Instagram/Pinterest—November 12
Social Media on the Internet provides new ways to stay in touch with friends and family. Tools like Facebook or Instagram are becoming more essential for keeping in touch, but not everyone understands the lingo and many have concerns about privacy. Attend one or all four workshops. You are invited to stay after the workshops to join the Thursday afternoon Open Lab to set up an account or practice with an existing one. For more information, please stop by or call the Adult Reference Desk 503-644-0043 ext.114.
Teen Read Week
 Sunday, October 18 - Saturday, October 24
“Get Away @ Your Library” Celebrate books written for, by and about teens. Spread the word about your love of teen lit. Stop by the library during Teen Read Week and pick up a free book! Read the book, leave it in a creative place for another reader to find and take a photo to document the spot. Post the pic to your favorite social media with #TRW2015 or #WCCLSTEENREADS
