Adults looking for help with a smartphone, computer or online task have a local option this Friday: Hoag Library’s official calendar lists tech help in the lobby from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on October 23.[1][2] The session matches Cornell Cooperative Extension of Orleans County’s published schedule for Hoag: the second and fourth Fridays of each month, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. CCE describes its Digital Skills Education program as free one-on-one support and classes for adults.[3] ## What the program covers CCE says its instruction can help people use smartphones and computers, stay safe online and recognize scams. It describes a pace suited to the learner, with practical goals such as connecting with family and accessing services.[3] Those are the program’s stated areas of support, rather than a promise that any particular device or problem can be resolved during Friday’s session. The current pages do not specify individual session lengths or an appointment procedure. Hoag’s website lists the library at 134 South Main Street in Albion and gives its phone number as 585-589-4246. Readers who need to confirm arrangements or ask about access before visiting can contact the library.[1] ## Another option in Albion For people whose schedules do not fit Friday, CCE lists community drop-in hours every Monday from 1 to 4 p.m. at Orleans County Cornell Cooperative Extension. Its education center is at 12690 State Route 31 in Albion; its published main number is 585-798-4265.[3] The provider’s cancellation rule applies to both options: if Orleans CCE or the drop-in location is closed, the drop-in hours are canceled. Check the current library and CCE pages before making a trip.[3] Friday’s time and lobby location come from Hoag’s October 23 event listing. The description of free adult instruction and the recurring schedules come from CCE’s current program page. Neither page prints a publication date; both were checked October 20. This is a guide to an existing service, not an announcement that a new program has launched. ## Sources [1] Hoag Library, Events and official contact information. https://www.hoaglibrary.org/events [2] Hoag Library’s official calendar, October 23 tech-help detail. https://localendar.com/event?DAM=PublishedEvent&m=445752&event_id=2629&calendar_id=445752&more_info=N&export_date=Oct+23%2C+2026&category=1 [3] Cornell Cooperative Extension of Orleans County, Digital Skills Education. https://cce.cornell.edu/orleans/programs-and-education/digital-skills-education
