Greetings LVA,

Welcome to the Guinnasium, this will is the new LVA library blog, where I’ll be communicating to you all things library.  You’ll find out different ways how the library can provide resources for you, how resources work, and what’s new in the library.  All sorts of things.  I can see you’re already quivering with………………………………………………………..anticipation.  

This year, I have set my goal to increase the number of books dealing with all of the fine arts that are practiced here at LVA.  Let me know if you have any suggestions, preferably in the suggestion link at the Online Library.  I have several books coming in the next few weeks.
