ORANGE COUNTY — For those looking to navigate the digital world with greater confidence, a free workshop focusing on the fundamentals of email communication is set to take place later this month.
The “Introduction to E-mail: The Power of Digital Communication” program, a collaborative effort between Purdue Extension Orange County and the Melton Public Library, promises to equip attendees with essential skills for effective online communication.

The workshop is designed with beginners in mind and requires no prior email experience. Participants will discover the advantages of having a personal email address, learn how to select an email provider, and gain hands-on experience in creating an account. Furthermore, the session will cover the practical aspects of sending, receiving, and organizing emails, along with advanced tools and best practices for maintaining online safety and security.
The free program is scheduled for Thursday, August 20, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. To secure a spot, attendees are asked to RSVP to the Melton Public Library by calling (812) 936-2177 or visiting the library’s reference desk.
Purdue University emphasizes its commitment to equal opportunity and access, and individuals requiring special accommodations, such as an interpreter or translator, are encouraged to contact their office at 812-723-7107 or email vportill@purdue.edu in advance of the meeting.
