Virginia,

I am a supervisor for an adult literacy program which is
located in the Washington County Public Library in Abingdon, VA.
We have an electric village at the main branch and internet
access at the four rural branches. I also have tutoring sites at 
each branch with computer assisted instruction. I have found the 
library very helpful in providing basic computer classes and internet
classes for my adults as well as the general public.

The HELP Literacy Program has its own icon and reference page.
I can be emailed from the home under personnel.
