Event Description

Did you know you can access free online tutoring, practice tests, writing help, and more with your library card? Join the Teen Services Librarians on Zoom to learn about Brainfuse, one of the library's many online resources you can access from home. After a short tutorial, we'll play Kahoot trivia to test your knowledge and learn more about all of the useful features on Brainfuse. Then, we'll film a short promotional video that will be posted on the library's social media pages.

This program will be hosted online via Zoom. The Zoom link will be emailed to registrants prior to the start of the program. Haven’t used Zoom before? Watch a helpful tutorial by our librarian Alison. Participants will need two devices with internet capability in order to participate: one screen to view the game and another (such as a phone) to participate.

Please note that in order to receive community service credit for this program, your camera must be turned on and facing you for the entire length of the program, and you will need to participate in the video portion of the program with your camera and microphone on.

Certificates for 1 hour of community service will be emailed to everyone who participates after the program.
