Have you heard of the term "redlining" and not known what it meant, have you wondered about the civil rights movement in the 1960's and if it affected Rochester? Join us as we welcome Shane Wiegand, a 4th grade teacher in the RH School District, and learn about Racist Policy and Resistance in Rochester. Mr. Wiegand is the co-leader of the Pathstone Foundations Anti-Racist Curriculum Project and trains teachers in the greater Rochester area in anti-racist curriculum.

Racist Policy and Resitance in Rochester will meet online using Zoom. Some basic knowledge of how to use Zoom is required, such as how to join a meeting. Email invitations will be sent out to registrants 12-24 hours in advance. Don't know how to use Zoom? We've got classes for that! Check out our full events calendar for dates and times.

We may not have in person Tech Tutors at this time, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t here to help with your specific technology questions. Virtually stop by Tech Time with Technology Library Assistant Laura and she will help you walk though the issues you might be having.

Due to the nature of this program, you may have to wait in the waiting room of Zoom for a few minutes until Laura is done with the person before you.

Did you know that you can check out library e-books and e-audiobooks on your phone, tablet, or even computer and read or listen to them digitally? It may not have the same feel, or smell, of a physical book but there are a lot of good things about having a digital book too! Much lighter, very portable, and it will hurt less when you drop it on your lap when you fall asleep reading.

Join us to learn what Overdrive and Libby are, and hear some tips and tricks for using them. There will be time for questions at the end, although if you have something very specific, we recommend reaching out to us directly.
