Do you have a question about your smartphone? You can get answers once a month at the Martindale Brightwood library branch.  

The Martindale Brightwood library offers smartphone drop-in sessions from 10:30 a.m. to noon the first Thursday of the month through the end of the year. Attendees can ask library staff questions about their iPhones or Androids. The sessions are first come, first served. The library cannot guarantee all problems will be addressed.
