Getting Started with Google Drive
Friday, May 3, 10:30-11:30am (on Zoom)
Sometimes you need a handy way to create, edit, and share documents online: maybe you’re editing a friend’s resume, dividing up tasks for an event you’re organizing with others, or sharing a video that’s too big to be sent over e-mail. Learn how to save and share documents on Google Drive, which offers 15GB of free storage for those with a Gmail/Google account.  

Google Maps Tips & Tricks
Thursday, May 16, 10:30-11:30am (in person)
Are you planning your summer travels? Let's look at Google Maps together! This essential resource is handy as both a website and app for travel and armchair exploration. Bring your device or plan to use a library laptop so you can follow along as we look at all of the amazing features in Google Maps and do Q&A while you're using the software.

Making DIY Foam Stamps Using Cricut
Sunday, May 19, 12:30-1:30pm
In this workshop, we will cut designs out of foam using a Cricut and construct our stamps with glue and a sturdy backing. Your foam stamps can be used with inkpads to create patterns on cards, fabric, paper crafts, etc! Feel free to bring something to try using your stamp on.
