Tech Talks are meant to be informative and fun. Giving the public a little bit more insight into websites we have found to be helpful, practical and generally easy to use. These sites are searched out or come across in day to day life and shared with the patrons at our library. Topics have ranged from gadgets, budgeting, and social networking to going green.
After hearing of the multitude of patrons seeking out doctors and/or prescriptions and information, I felt a new concept come to mind.
I’d have a Tech Talk devoted to medical websites that empower and inform our patrons. I thought, “If there are so many sites on gadgets, games, social networking and the like I should be able to provide the same where medicine is concerned.” Then I set to work to make it happen.
I, by no means am a font of knowledge when it comes to medicine but, I was lucky enough to run into a good source of information in the form of a great nurse named Janet. With all the pieces having fallen into place, I am happy to announce that on Tuesday, September 22nd from 12:30 pm-1:30 pm, we will be having a Tech Talk on sites that seek to help you take control when choosing doctors, be informed about alternative medicines & healthy foods, and find programs on discounted prescriptions. Hope To See You There!!!
