If you're looking for help developing basic computer skills, look no further than the Multnomah County Public Library's TechnoHosts. These friendly, trained volunteers can help you use the library's digital resources and practice other basic skills. Tomorrow evening at 6, they'll be available at the Rockwood library, located at 17917 S.E. Stark Street, and they also host daytime sessions at other library branches.
The library is always seeking new TechnoHosts, so if you're already comfortable with computers, you might want to consider volunteering.
