SUMMARY:Technology Series: Break Up with Google
DESCRIPTION:Google can be hard to quit\, since it's part of so many tool
 s and products we use on a daily basis\, from Gmail to Google Docs to th
 eir popular search engine. Using these products is convenient\, but it m
 eans that this giant company knows a whole lot about you\, and as intrus
 ive AI features are integrated without any options to disable them\, Goo
 gle products are becoming less appealing to many users.\n\n\n\nThis thre
 e-session workshop series will guide attendees through the first steps o
 f de-Googling their digital lives\, to improve privacy and security. Par
 ticipants are welcome to sign up for some or all of the sessions\, depen
 ding on their goals and needs. Please be sure to register individually f
 or each date.\n\n\n\nSession 3: July 23 - Drive &amp\; Docs\, Maps\, &am
 p\; MoreIn everything from cloud storage to document collaboration to ma
 ps\, Google dominates the market. In this final session\, we will discus
 s alternatives such as Libre Office for free desktop software\, Proton's
  document-editing suite\, Cryptpad\, OrganicMaps\, and more\, and try to
  land on the best tools for each participant's needs.\n\n\n\nThis series
  will be hands-on and participatory\, so attendees are encouraged to bri
 ng their own devices if possible\, and ensure they have access to email 
 and passwords. Library computers will also be available to use as needed
 .\n\n\n\nThe library offers regular technology workshops on different su
 bjects. All workshops are free of charge\, but space is limited\, so reg
 istration is required to attend. Please be sure to register individually
  for each date you plan to attend.\n\n\n\nFor more information\, contact
  Hannah at 922-6055 or hannah.cyrus@bangorpubliclibrary.org.
