[OPLINLIST] public computer classes

[Mary Pelton]

No.  We do not currently have a keyboarding class.

We used to have a keyboarding class, but we would often have to cancel it
due to low numbers.

What we do now is have a list (bookmarked on delicious) of typing tutorial
websites and free online typing games for the patrons to use in the public
computer lab.  They seem to be okay with this.
