Please have a safe and happy holiday while we celebrate the adoption of the Declaration of Independence—241 years ago on July 4, 1776—which holds that "all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

While we are closed for the holiday, access is available to many Library services remotely, including digital downloads of eBooks through WVDeli and OverDrive’s Digital Download Service, mp3 music downloads through Freegal, Instantflix’s streaming video platform, TumbleBooks which offers animated, talking picture books, read-along chapter books and more for young readers, and e-magazine through Zinio, the world’s largest newsstand. You can even download and listen to the Declaration of Independence to your smartphone!
