DVD's!

Friends, Spartans, Countrymen!

     I just wanted to remind you all about our awesome dvd collection, located in the reading room of Jackson library.

     My wonderful friends at the library spent all summer getting the dvd's arranged by genre. In the picture above you can see me checking out the action section. I'm getting the movie 300 because "THIS IS SPARTA!"

     We have hundreds of dvd's  and our collection just keeps growing! You can search for a specific dvd using the red search box on the library home page, we have a special tab just for dvd searching! You can check two dvd's at a time for 7 days each. And remember you can always suggest materials we don't have.

  Ok, I'm off to pop some popcorn and watch my movie!

xoxo,

Irma

Government Documents

Jackson Library is a depository of both United States and State of North Carolina government publications. The government documents materials can be found in the lower level, opposite of the DMC. You can search for government documents in our catalog. If you need to find one ask someone at the reference desk as the library classification system for government documents can be very confusing.

Banned Books Week!

Happy Banned Book Week!

This week we celebrate and encourage people to read and distribute books that have been banned and challenged. It's about informing the public of censorship that can effect the library and them. We encourage people to think for themselves and leave censorship in the past.  Below you can view an ALA timeline celebrating 30 years of books that have been censored, banned and challenged. Click the picture to get started.

You can also pick up plenty of these "banned" books from our libraries, you can find a list of some banned materials on our pinterest board here.

On one last note, Happy October!
