With fifteen computers available on the premises also, patrons can make use of the Wi-Fi system on offer , or should they decided to bring in their very own devices such as a laptop computer , E Book reader or tablet . All of this , comes free of charge, and all that is asked of the patrons, is that they refrain from seeking to surf the internet for objectionable material. Getting linked to the internet (worldwide web) is simple. However , the staff will always be on hand to provide any assistance that might be needed. We also have on hand a person who will provide any technical assistance need to guests and patrons having difficulties with any device, be it a smart-phone , laptop , note-book , Kindle or E-book reader, in guiding them through any technical difficulties, in gaining use of the internet .
The Dundee Library has always sought the input of its patrons, as well as acting in conjunction with the Polk County Library Cooperative and also our Friends of the Library Dundee Inc., a charitable organization made up of volunteers with a committed group of board members, who assist in fund-raising activities in order to provide funding for some of the library’s programs , beyond the budget afforded the library by the town commission . With ongoing fundraising to aid the library’s many needs over the course of the calendar year , book sales , and other activities are used part of that endeavor , including bake sales . Patrons and guests are asked to aid in any way that they can in the process.
Julie Feagle as the Library’s Director, has always sought the input of the guests and patrons and in that endeavor ,she will be introducing a basic computer skills’ class to assist guests and patrons alike, whose wish it is to learn more about the use not only of their media devices , but also how best to enjoy the internet and that of the skill s that the individuals in questions tend to have difficulties with.
As the town continues to grow, hopefully, so too, will the prospects of the library in adding to the town’s way of life and adding possible services.
