They are short descriptions of a particular situation, event or activity, which include specific information about what to expect in that situation and why.

Borrow an ACORN Age-Friendly Smart Tablet

Designed with the older person in mind but suitable for anyone who wants to learn more about how to use a tablet, the ACORN Age-Friendly Smart Tablet is easy to use, easy to navigate and has an uncluttered interface, making online communication and access to the internet simple and rewarding for even the most inexperienced user.

The tablet will need access to WiFi in order to connect to the internet. If you have none at home you can connect to the Library WiFi and use it in the branch. Creating an email account beforehand is helpful but not necessary, as staff will assist with the setup if required. The tablets can be borrowed on 3-month loans to give users time to get familiar with them. Ask in branch for more information.
