“Let’s Chat” Virtual Series and Classes Hosted by Emma Clark Library

Setauket, NY – April 23, 2020 –

Many feel isolated during this time of social distancing, so Emma Clark Library has created a few “Let’s Chat” series to bring that personal connection to the community:

Let’s Chat – We miss our library friends, so we’re beginning virtual chat sessions on Tuesdays, 3:00 – 4:00 p.m. and Wednesdays, 11:00 a.m. – 12noon, beginning on April 28. Until we can again chat in person, we plan to gather via Zoom. Each weekly session will be led by Emma Clark Librarians and have a different theme. For Three Village residents only. Registration required. Questions? Email askus@emmaclark.org.

Let’s Chat: Teen Edition – Who else needs to chill and talk? We’re going to get together and hang out virtually on Tuesdays at 3:00 p.m. weekly, starting April 28. Let’s “meet-up” and talk about whatever YOU want. We can talk about all the crazy stuff going on now – social distancing & coping methods, remote schooling tips, how to keep in touch while in quarantine. Or even just the latest trends in pop culture, what we’re reading, or what we’re binge-watching. We’ll have Conversation Facilitators to keep things going. If you’d like, you can even submit anonymous questions or topics you want to discuss in advance when you register. For Three Village residents in grades 7 – 12 only. Registration required. Questions? Email teens@emmaclark.org.

Tech Talk with Jen and Bob – From smart home to smartphones, join us as we discuss all things technology related. We’ll be chatting live, online every Tuesday morning at 10:00 a.m. & Thursday evening at 7:00 p.m. Come with questions or just to learn something new! Jennifer Mullen is the Technology Librarian and Bob Johnson is the IT Manager at Emma Clark Library. Questions? Email techhelp@emmaclark.org.

Space is limited for all of these series. Register for each session separately at emmaclark.org/virtual-classes-events.  To ensure a relaxing discussion, the library is keeping chat groups small. Once registered, the library will email you a participation link.

In addition to the Let’s Chat series, Emma Clark Library will have a variety of virtual classes such as book discussions and classes on gardening, art, science, & more. Visit emmaclark.org/virtual-classes-events for the latest offerings.

New to Zoom?  You do not need to have your own Zoom account to participate in these meetings, but you must download the Zoom application onto your device (phone, tablet or laptop) the first time you attend a Zoom meeting. You can get assistance using Zoom by emailing techhelp@emmaclark.org.

 

The Emma S. Clark Memorial Library, located at 120 Main Street in Setauket and online at emmaclark.org, provides public library service to all residents of the Three Village Central School District.
