Computer Classes at the Portsmouth Public Library
 The Portsmouth Public Library will soon begin offering a number of free, hands-on computer classes. The classes will be held at the library during the day on weekdays and will run for 1 and 1/2 hours. Days and times of the classes will vary, and some classes will have prerequisites. Each class will be a one-time workshop which can be repeated if necessary.
