Need computer answers? Find them at the Pearl Public Library!

It's not a computer class. It's better!

It's Computer Tutorials every Monday, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Stop by the reference desk at the Pearl Public Library with your computer questions. Helpful staff will be happy to give you instruction.

If you need to write a letter and don't know what document tool to use? They'll  happily show you the magical world of Microsoft Word!

Don't have an email address, but would love to create one? They'll show you where to go for easy steps to get you on your way! Soon, you'll be a pro!

Printing documents or emails, sending and/or downloading attachments, searching the internet, etc., the reference staff will HOOK YOU UP!

Don't be shy. Come in to the Pearl Public Library. Housing the only computer lab in the Central MS Regional Library System, plus more computers in the reference area (34 total), there are plenty of computers to go around. 

Even though formal computer tutorials are from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Mondays, general computer assistance is available every day during library hours. That's Mon. - Thurs. 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Fri. 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sat. 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. 

Just remember that for your own privacy, staffers will not help you create passwords or help with applications or any projects that require your confidential information. Staff will not answer tax questions of any kind, not even suggest what form you should use. That's totally prohibited.

But, hey, anything else and they are there for you!

We'll see you there!
