Subject: Teen Computer Tutors
I've seen some articles about libraries having teens come in and help older
people work with computers on a one-on-one basis. Summertime volunteer
tutoring sort of thing -- the how-to-use-a-mouse, how-to-surf-the-web,
how-to-email stuff librarians don't have time to do but would really like to
offer to patrons. Has anyone had experience with this? Suggestions, good
or bad anecdotes welcome.
