I am happy to announce the availability of over 4,000 comics,
graphic novels, and children’s materials as part of a program
between the West Virginia Library Commission and BiblioBoard to
make this content freely available to all West Virginia
residents throughout the summer. This project is intended to
provide easy access to digital resources while also supporting
statewide summer reading programs for all ages during the
COVID-19 period. All of the eBooks are available in an
unlimited simultaneous use model and serve patrons through
geolocation. Anyone with a West Virginia IP may access the
collections through August 31, 2020.

Our book review by one of your librarians, check it out

Due to guidelines we have to limit how many people can be in the
library at
a time (Oak Hill 5, Montgomery 4, Fayetteville 3, Mt. Hope,
Ansted and
Meadow Bridge 2) and you will have 30 minutes per visit.
There will be no weekend hours for the next month, but we
hope to get back to our regular hours sometime in September.
Per the Governor everyone should wear masks while in the
library.

business days in advance of your desired delivery date.
Materials can be delivered as often as four weeks apart.
Patrons should request enough items to last them that length
of time.
Renewals are possible as long as the items are not on hold
for another patron.
Failure to return any library items will result in cessation
