ATWATER LIBRARY LECTURES

1. HOW TO USE ZOOM

   This Atwater Library Presentation begins with an introduction to accepting Zoom invitations without need for an account or the app. It then continues to extrapolate on creating an account and installing the app for access to additional features and convenience. After exploring basic settings and participant tools in a meeting, the presentation will cover how to host a meeting and schedul meetings for a future time and date. The presentation comes to a close with how to seek help and support.

2. VIRTUAL MUSEUMS and ONLINE EXPLORATION

   During the presentation of Virtual Museums and Online Exploration there will be a demonstration of how to find multiple examples of curated online cultural exhibitions which can be explored from home. The demonstration will include how to find these and potentially other resources of interest as well as equipping participants with skills to navigate virtual tours. In addition to museums, there will also be an exploration of online resources that may prove of interest or otherwise provide opportunities to explore experiences that may not be reasonably had in person.
