Technology boost for region's libraries

Library lovers have yet another reason to visit Snowy Monaro Regional Library following the addition of two new interactive hubs.

Bombala and Cooma libraries are now each home to a large screen, smart TV that will enhance the digital skills of library users and allow staff greater access to online resources.

Library goers of all ages will benefit from interactive TVs with the new technology offering a range of educational opportunities for children. From trivia teasers to piano performances, the TVs will help children improve their painting, mathematical and problem-solving skills.

"Our libraries are fantastic places and the addition of these interactive TVs will further enhance the services they offer," Snowy Monaro Regional Council Mayor Peter Beer said.

When COVID-19 restrictions are eased, community members will be able to use the new TVs with the popular Tech Savvy Seniors classes set to put their skills to the test on these larger screens.
