About the Library

Technology Services in the Library

Library Techs are available to keep library technology running smoothly and to help students/faculty/staff with use of library equipment.

On personal devices, we can help with school related items. These include:

connecting to wifi
navigating Canvas and MyVPCC,
using MS Office and other programs
VPCC/school-related websites (Sam, Cengage, etc.)
other technology needs related to student academic work at VPCC
We are not allowed to repair student devices or help them to do things that are not directly related to school.
Feel free to ask for help and we will do what we can.
