Calling all adults and senior citizens! Want to learn how to FaceTime, pay bills online, work your new tablet, or have other tech questions and no one to ask? The Ford City Public Library offers a dedicated technology tutoring program, Tech Tutor Tuesdays, to help! Book an individual appointment at 12:30pm or 1:15pm to get started, or stop in for our group tutoring session from 2pm to 3pm! No charge, just help!

Our Halloween Costume Swap serves as an opportunity to reuse and repurpose gently worn Halloween costumes, be creative, and save families money. Community members will drop off gently used costumes they no longer need during a two week window at the library. A voucher will be given in exchange for each costume contributed. The Swap Day will be held the Saturday after the end of the drop-off window (about two weeks before Halloween), and community members can stop in all day long with their vouchers to claim some new-to-them costumes! They may take up to as many costumes as they dropped off, indicated on their voucher. Any costumes left at the end of the day will be made available the following week for free, while supplies last, on a first-come, first serve basis.
