Tour around Slover Library


Before I start working as a volunteer at Slover Library, I decided to tour the place last Friday. It's the biggest and awesomest, if that's a word, library that I've been. They have touch-screen online catalogs and building directory, which I found really cool. The building has, I think, five or six floors, where in books and other resource materials are found at the first three floors, and meeting rooms and computer labs are found at the top floors.



At the second floor, the library has an area specifically for children. The library has books available for kids from toddler 'til 12 years of age. There is also a play space for kids ages 0-2, a kidszone for older kids, and an art studio located in this section of the library. Computers and tablets are also open for kids to use.


But the main event of my library visit, and every library visit that I do, is looking for these, Japanese manga and anime DVDs. However, I was a bit sad because they did not have a whole shelf or shelves filled with manga, unlike other libraries. They also did not have anime DVDs. It was a bit disappointing, but overall, Slover Library is still AMAZING for me.
