Author #138: Elys Dolan mash-up Star Trek and Star Wars in Nuts In Space

Libraries-more than books! pt 2 : Movies

Some of the highest circulating items are movies from your local library. Choose from Dvds in many genres including mystery, western, biography, comedy, drama, science fiction, musicals, tv shows, and informational shows on everything from exercise and cooking programs to social commentaries and travel shows. Don’t forget the large selection of children's movies-entertaining or educational and sometimes both!

Featured in these blog pictures are the British mystery series Pie in the Sky, the British science fiction series Doctor Who, the comedy series I Dream of Jeannie and the following movies: Dumbo, Bell, Book and Candle, Mrs. Santa Claus, 12 Angry Men, and The King's Speech. Your local library may carry old classics, new releases, foreign films in many different languages, and many great films that you may have forgotten about over the years or many great films that you have yet to discover.

See something special or spectacular courtesy of your local library! The only caveat with movies is that they generally have a shorter check-out time than other items. Our library has a 1 week check-out for dvds. But remember, you're checking out the movies without the rental fees from other sources so it's still a great deal.

Pop in a dvd, pop some popcorn and view something popular tonight!
