PCPL to host technology sale

The Putnam County Public Library will host its first Technology Sale Dec. 3 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The event will be hosted with the help of the Friends of the Library and will include refurbished computers and peripheral devices for as little as $20. Other accessories are eReaders, routers, printers and keyboards.
