Sept. 27, 2002 – Planning and Natural Resources Commissioner Dean Plaskett invites the public to a territorywide open house for the Division of Libraries, Archives and Museums next Thursday.
The division will display and demonstrate the new computers it received and installed through a grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, with an aim of establishing access to information technology resources.
Every public library in the territory will be furnished with six additional computers equipped with word processing, reference and children's programs, made available in both Spanish and English.
The Athalie M. Petersen and Elaine I. Sprauve public libraries will hold their open house from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the Enid M. Baa and Florence Williams public libraries will hold theirs from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Staff members will be available to answer questions and explain how to use the new computers. For more information, call Sharlene Harris, director of Libraries, Archives and Museums, at 774-3407.
