The Orange County Library System here in Central Florida holds writing classes over Zoom, so anyone anywhere may attend. The Library Card field on the registration form is optional. If you don’t have an OCLS library card, just leave it blank. Please be aware that the library does not record these sessions or offer replays. Please note all times are US Eastern.
If you register for one of these events, the event host will send you an email with a link to access the Zoom room before the event. This email will also include any applicable handouts.
