Welcome to Northland’s blog. You’ll need to bear with some of us old folks who are tiptoeing into the use of new technology – but my staff has finally dragged me kicking and screaming into the 21st Century. Northland is all about connections –connecting you to books – to information – to learning –to the world and to our communities-to each other. Our blog is another tool designed to connect Northland to you and vice versa. Important connections for Northland are:
• Our memberships in the Allegheny County Library Association and the Electronic Information Network which has made the collections of all 44 libraries in Allegheny County available to you.
• Our participation in Access Pennsylvania which has made the collections of participating libraries throughout Pennsylvania and the P.O.W.E.R (Pennsylvania Online World of Electronic Resources) databases available to you.
• Our monthly Conversation Salon which provides a forum for discussion of topics of interest to those attending.
• Storytimes for children, ages 6 months to 5 years, which lay the foundation for lifelong learning.
• Computer Classes for adults of all ages that provide connections to the world of technology.
How does Northland help you make connections?
