Tutorials and instructional sites offer community services like literacy programs and computer classes. They teach patrons how to use the library and simultaneously teach them day-to-day skills.

* Nylink Educational Services: fee-based online workshops and webinars on a variety of topics; Nylink provides educational opportunities to New York State librarians and beyond
