Registration for this event is no longer open.

Event Details

After you read the NewsBank online edition of the news of the day in our local newspaper, The Rock Island Argus, you might want to take something home with you.  It could be the crossword puzzle, an obituary, a copy of a news article or announcement you want to stick onto your refrigerator behind that always handy magnet.

Today's workshop will show you how you can extract that coveted item from the online digital newspaper and learn what to do with it once you've 'torn it out.'  You will learn the how to 'cut' as well as practice your new skill on one of our library's laptops.

Registration is requested and a current Rock Island Library card will be very helpful.

Please note that because of the solar eclipse the time for this event has been changed to begin now at 3:00 p.m.
