Scammers love to use the way our minds work against us, and the social media world gives them constant opportunities to find new targets for seemingly endless fraud.

This program will explore the brain and give you tools that you can use to identify deceptive tactics in today's information landscape. Protect yourself and those around you by learning about how the mechanisms of social media take advantage of the way humans think.

About the branch

The Beech Grove Public Library has served the City of Beech Grove since 1951 when it opened at a storefront location. Its current building, dating back to 1953, has undergone four renovations and additions, the most recent in 2019. In 2016, the library merged with The Indianapolis Public Library to become the Beech Grove Branch, IndyPL’s 23rd branch location.
