“The VLP was my sanctuary. I could go there every day to keep out of the cold or the rain, have thousands of books to choose from, and learn how to navigate the computers.”

-Stephen Elliot, library patron

Library

Our collection of over 18,000 circulating books includes titles by classic and contemporary authors, as well as an excellent collection of children’s literature. We are always improving our new Special Collections, which include Local Interest, Gardening, Parenting, Cooking, and African-American History & Literature.
