Get "Un-stuck" at the Hutchinson Public Library

This image shows the main list of broad learning categories available
Have you ever installed a new version of some software you've always used? But when you open up the new version, all the menus have changed or that feature you use a hundred times a day has been modified? This has happened to me, at least. So, you fire up your browser or open your YouTube app and start looking for a tutorial that answers your question.

This solution may work, but it is often time-consuming and can be frustrating. Now, you can instead use your library card to use a new tool offered through the Hutchinson Public Library: lynda.com

lynda.com is an online tutorial and learning service made up of a HUGE number of video lessons. The lessons are in short, 3-5 minutes chunks and are indexed and searchable. This arrangement allows you to watch and learn through a whole lesson, watch a lesson in small parts and lynda.com keeps track for you, or search for your specific need and get the answer to your immediate question.

This service is free to you through the Hutchinson Public Library's website. All you need to get started is a current library card! Go and browse through the catalog of training courses today!
