Introducing the Digital Studio!

We are thrilled to announce that the Graff Family Digital Studio is open for business! This Studio is one of the exciting new features of the renovated Library.  We have amazing technology for podcasting, and you are welcome to use it.  All you need to do is attend one of free “Podcasting @ FPL” training sessions.  Learn about what’s available and how to use it, as well as how to reserve the room.

Please see our calendar for dates and times of the training class.  It is offered frequently, so we hope there’s a time that works for you.  The class and the use of the Studio are free, but registration is required.
