Computer Classes

There is no waiting list for computer classes. Please do not take down the name and number of patrons wanting to get into a full computer class.

Please inform patrons that the next session of classes will be available Jan-May. And sign-up will not be available until sometime in January.

Answers to common questions from these patrons -
1.) why do we publicize in the newsletter for 5 openings? The newsletter is our main source of advertisement and goes to almost all Homer Library patrons. It would not be fair to NOT let all patrons know of this program. The newsletter is available before sign-up, meaning people are aware of the beginning sign-up date and time before hand.
2.)Why do we not have a waiting list?
We've noticed that people do not call to cancel ahead of time. They just do not show. This occurred even when there was a fee. Also, people mistake the waiting list as a guarantee that they will be in the next sessions class -- this defeats the purpose of a fair sign-up and shot at classes. Plus, if we did this, our classes would be booked for years in advance.

Thanks.
