Daniel Lakeland<p>I've been told by my contact at the <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/altadena" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>altadena</span></a> library that theyre definitely interested in moving forward with a series of tech access events, starting in June. I haven't got specifics yet. But it will likely start with an event at the new location in Loma Alta park. I think each event will be duplicated at the main branch as well?
