Discover our new artwork! PDF Print

 

There will be no doubt you've entered the Youth Services Department the next time you visit us!  Above the Reference Desk and throughout the department, artist Gregory Gove has installed new artwork that inspires the imagination!  This artwork was generously funded by our Friends of the Library.  Here are a few pictures, but you have to see it in action, so visit us soon and tell us what you think!

 
Could You Survive the Hunger Games? PDF Print

In the distant future, North America lies in ruins.  In its place is the nation of Panem.  The Capitol is surrounded by twelve districts. Each year, the districts are forced to send one boy and one girl to participate in the Hunger Games, a nationally televised fight to the death. Twenty-four will enter but only one will survive.

Find what you need to survive in the VAPLD's Hunger Games Guide
