Online Resources Provide Learning, Fitness Options

posted on March 27, 2020

Lewiston Adult Education students and staff are not coming together in order to limit the spread of the coronavirus but can rely on a number of online options to continue learning.

Many have appeared on Lewiston Adult Education’s social media accounts. This list is meant as a starting point for the Lewiston-Auburn community and may have updates.

First, Lewiston Public Library has electronic books and audio books available on its website. Here is the link:

Both Lewiston and Auburn public libraries have resources for people learning new languages:
