Mentor Program – If you live locally, the mentor program is helpful to new and current members.  Some “mentees” need or want only an hour or two of assistance (e.g. assistance with a computer or in the library) others need or want more time.  It is important to have a current list of members that wish to participate in the program plus enough volunteers so that this activity does not become burdensome for a few.

Everyone, please check “Yes” or “No” for this Question:
