Did you know that you can access the entire 130-year history of National Geographic Magazine from home, just using your library card? With our subscription to the National Geographic Virtual Library, not only can you browse and read any issue, but you can also search it all by keyword or topic. Please join us for an informal session to see how it all works! No registration or devices needed, although if you’d like to bring your own tablet or laptop to follow along, you’re welcome to do so.
Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests of 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged, but not required. All programs are subject to change. For a list of upcoming library events, visit HSPLS Events Calendar.
