Low Vision Resources & Tech Support at the Lake County Library

Lakeport, June 22, 2023 - The Lake County Library is fostering inclusivity by offering a myriad of free resources specially tailored to empower individuals with low vision. The Lakeport library invites the public to an informational event on Tuesday June 27th from 1-3pm where Library Technician Amy Patton will be explaining all of the resources available. Resources covered will include large type books, mp3 players, eAudiobooks, books on cd, and more. Amy can be contacted at Amy.Patton@lakecountyca.gov.

The public is also invited to attend Tech Tuesday every Tuesday from 10am-4:30pm at all four branches. Patrons can receive thirty minutes of free help. “Whether it's a smartphone conundrum or a computer dilemma,” say Director Christopher Veach, “bring your device to any Lake County Library branch on a Tuesday after the library opens and before 4 pm, and library staff will guide you to tech-savviness in just half an hour.”

The Lake County Library website also offers other free digital resources. From free access to the New York Times to free classes on Skillshare, patrons need only visit the Lake County Library online to get started.
