New: TCPL Academy Tutorials!

We have exciting news! TCPL is partnering with Niche Academy to provide our patrons with a new digital resource: Tompkins County Public Library Academy. The TCPL Academy is a collection of self-paced tutorials you can use to get started with some of our more popular services, such as Libby and Tumblebooks for ebooks, Mango for language learning, JobNow for employment assistance, and HeritageQuest for genealogy research. There are even tutorials for Google’s productivity suite and popular social media applications, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. To get started with TCPL Academy, simply click on the blue “Tutorials” widget on the right side of our website. We have also placed blue “Tutorial” buttons for specific services on our ebooks and databases pages. If you have questions, or need help getting started with TCPL Academy, please reach out to our Digital Access Librarian, Tom Fredette, at tfredette@tcpl.org or 607-272-4557 ext. 271.
