"Connecting people in Saint Paul with learning resources for success in school and life is important to the Saint Paul Public Library. We have been teaching basic level computer skills at the library for years, and we've been looking for a way to expand what we offer to meet the needs of more of our patrons. We are excited that the library's subscription to lynda.com will let our patrons access the next level of classes for free and on their own schedules," said John Larson, Digital Services Manager, Community & Digital Services at the Saint Paul Public Library.
"Off-site access to lynda.com through lyndaLibrary is a great benefit and community service that libraries can now offer to their patrons, many of whom are facing life transitions, looking for new jobs and/or looking to gain a new skill," said Andrew Wait, President of lynda.com "We are thrilled to work with our library partners as they assist patrons in bridging skills gaps particularly those looking to learn the latest version of software(s), resume writing, job hunting, and interviewing skills."
In addition to lyndaLibrary, lynda.com offers specialized products that serve the government, higher education and corporate sectors.
