Dump Old Electronic Stuff At Farmington Library For Special Event Later This Month

FARMINGTON, CT — If you have that old computer, tablet, or other electronic device just taking up space in your home, unload it at the Farmington Libraries.

That's because the Farmington Library is requesting donations of old technology for its upcoming Take Apart Program.

This program is scheduled to take place at the Maker Fair on March 22.

Community members are invited to contribute used electronic devices to support this educational initiative.

Donations can be dropped off at the Information Services Desk located at the Farmington Library's main site at 6 Monteith Drive.

The collection period for these items runs from March 2-13.

The Take Apart Program aims to provide participants with an opportunity to explore the internal components of various electronic devices.

This type of hands-on activity fosters curiosity about technology and engineering principles.

The program provides a unique learning experience for those attending the Maker Fair.

Residents who have questions about the types of technology suitable for donation can contact the Information Services Department.

The department can be reached by calling 860-673-6791. Library staff can guide acceptable items for the program.
