Important information should be forwarded to everybody
as fast as possible. That's the beauty of having a
webpage. Considering the amount of hits which we register,
there a lot of people interested in the information
published in our website.
But
what about the member who has no computer?
If you know somebody in this situation, please inform
him to join his/her local Library where for no charge,
the librarian can issue a sign in and explain the
basics of how to access the Internet. A short summary
of the most important items published in the website
will be issued by ALRONA at irregular intervals and
mailed to all members who have not registered an email
address.
