Cesar Chavez Library has a NEW Digital Arts Lab!

The new lab consists of four Apple computers provided by grant funds. These computers have software for creating comics, music, graphics, photos and videos. Professional software includes Adobe Creative Suite 5 and Final Cut Pro! There are many workshops scheduled for the new lab. Check out the upcoming events at the Crazy Techie Summer webpage. We hope you come use Macs!

The new HD video cameras have arrived! They were just purchased with grant funds. Visit the John Steinbeck and Cesar Chavez libraries to checkout a Kodak Zi8 video camera. These cameras are perfect for gathering video footage that can be edited at the library's Digital Arts Lab. Teens can also use these video cameras to make a movie for the Crazy Techie Summer flim contest.
