Clubhouse Personal Help
For personal help, visit our clubhouse where other members may be able to provide the answers you need. While ther check out our library. You might find the help you need in one of our books, CDs, or DVDs that you can browse and borrow. The clubhouse is usually open Saturdays and Sundays noon to 4pm, and Tuesdays 9am-4pm. Check our calendar if in doubt.
Google It
If the help you need is not BB&C related, and you have an internet connection, visit one of the online search engines. Google is the current favourite and a good starting point. If your search is encyclopedia related, visit Wikipedia. Also check out the New York Times Newsroom Navigator for specialized links.
