The Fiske Public Library is hosting Free IT Help “Office Hours” every Tuesday evening 5:00-7:30 p.m. where IT expert Ben Elliot will be available to help with any and all IT-related things in an informal setting.

He has created an easy to use website for booking appointments! Please visit his page at: https://befreeit.org Click the "Schedule Help Now" button or the "Get Help" button it will lead to https://appt.befreeit.org to make appointments. Going forward, he will still take walk-ins, but will start prioritizing the people that make appointments to come in during his hours.Some example uses for these office hours might be: Education *How to use Websites/Apps/Computers/Phones/Tablets/Smart Watches/etc. (Including that gift you just got for the holidays or a Birthday) *How to manage Emails and clean up a messy inbox by deleting in bulk and unsubscribing (1000+ emails is a scary thing to see every day) *How to get photos from your phone/computer onto something physical like a photo album with help from a USB Drive (AKA Thumb Drive/Flash Drive) and Walmart for a thoughtful holiday gift *How to manage passwords securely and easily for those HUNDREDS of logins we all have by using password managers (like the one in your web browser or my favorite: Bitwarden) *IT Experimenting - time to just play around and test things with the reassurance that someone can support you if you run into issues Research *Support for finding the resources needed to learn complex tools/skills like spreadsheets, programming, video editing, etc. *Help finding technology that will meet your needs and some starting price estimates *Help identifying files on your device so you can organize/delete them without worry Tech Support *Diagnosing and finding solutions to any and all issues like slow speeds, unwanted pop-ups, security concerns, computer not booting, can’t connect to Wifi, etc *PC tune ups and maintenance *Password resets for locked Computers (For when you just can’t find that password!) *Recovering deleted files (Luck may required here) *Virus removal/prevention *Migrating to a new phone/computer Referrals *Recommendations to websites, nearby vendors, or more if something requires more specialized professional help Some examples of how I will NOT be using this time would be: Large, resource-intensive projects *Building Websites, Apps, etc (Though I can help get your research started and find resources!) *Doing bulk services for commercial gain (These hours are for Residential IT only) *Dishonest/Illegal activities *Cheating on homework assignments by doing them for you (Though I can provide guidance) *Stealing, hacking, breaking into phones/computers https://fiskelib.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/free-it-help-office-hours-102/
