The public has an opportunity to receive some technical support at the city of Santa Maria Public Library's next session of "Tech Help Saturdays" on Saturday, June 10 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

People can meet one-on-one with library staff for a 25-minute session to learn more about accessing library resources on a personal smart device.

Participants can learn how to access and download e-books and audiobooks using apps available for free with a library card. Participants are encouraged to bring their own devices to learn how to enjoy library resources at home.

Library users can receive guidance on technology topics like installing apps, creating email accounts, and best practices to ensure online privacy.
