In honor of this year's Teen Tech Week, March 8 - 14, the Troy Public Library will sponsor a teen scavenger hunt that will highlight the Library's databases, downloadable books, and other electronic resources.
All young people between the ages of 13 and 18 who have a Troy Library card are eligible to participate in the hunt. There will be a drawing of prizes of Visa gift cards, video game rentals, and flash drives, for those who successfully finish the hunt.
For more information, contact the Library's Teen Librarian Judy Frankin, at j.franklin@troymi.gov. The scavenger hunt ends on March 16.
Teen Tech Week is an annual event sponsored by the Young Adult Library Services Association to celebrate and showcase the technology and non-print resources that teens can use at the library.

Free Tech Support Online
According to Azadeh Ensha, writing in The New York Times: “If you’re like me, odds are that you’ve… found yourself with a tech problem that was made worse by the lack of ready, available — and perhaps most important — useful [phone customer support]. But with the Internet, there’s no need to have to wait on hold.
"There are hundreds (if not thousands) of other users out there, sharing their experience and wisdom, often free. So instead of getting on the phone, get online and start crowdsourcing your tech support needs.”
Ensha then reviews several free tech support web sites, for PCs, Macs, and smartphones, such as the BlackBerry and the iPhone.
Some good advice if you are looking to find high quality tech support from co-users without a cost or a wait.
