WAUSAU – Are you afraid to even touch a computer for fear of breaking it? Do you want to learn basic computer use but aren’t sure where to start? The Marathon County Public Library (MCPL) is offering a free computer class for beginners at its Wausau Headquarters, 300 N. First St., Wausau this fall.
