Technology Help

The South Burlington Public Library has dedicated volunteers and staff to provide individual technology assistance appointments for free! We can help you learn about your electronic devices so that you feel more confident using them. We also offer classes and training resources.

Sessions by Appointment

Forty-minute appointments with a volunteer are available regularly on the first and third Fridays* of the month, from 10:00am – 1:00pm and alternate Tuesdays*, from 1:00pm – 4:00pm. Registration is required.

*Please check our events schedule to confirm dates as schedules are subject to change due to holidays, closings, etc.

Evening Drop-In Sessions

Come in alternate Tuesdays, 5:00-6:30pm, now through January. Check the event schedule for exact dates.

Other Times by Request

Our regularly scheduled times don’t work for you? Request a technology appointment during the library’s regular hours. We will connect you with a tech volunteer who will meet you in the library at a time that works for both of you. Registration is required.

Tech Help Registration

Note: We do not fix devices. Our volunteers and staff are not responsible for user's laptops, phones or other devices.
