Sno-Isle Libraries teach about eReaders

If you found an eReader under the tree for Christmas but aren’t sure what to do next, head to the library for a free class. An eReader is a portable device with a screen for reading electronic versions of books (eBooks), magazines, newspapers and other types of files.
