In particular, Appalachian literature (novels, poems, stories, plays, memoirs, etc.) has generated a huge amount of attention. In pure volume, literature is the most cited, presented, and studied subject in all of Appalachian studies. Additionally, Appalachian writers such as Lee Smith, Robert Morgan, Ron Rash, and Sharyn McCrumb have enjoyed a wide readership throughout the mountains and the nation.

    the magazine of the broadSIDE FALL 2008 Literary Lifetime Achievement Recipients Highlight A Decade of Library of Virginia Literary Awards, page 2 see caption on back cover broadSIDE THE INSIDE STORY the magazine of the Adapting to the Times LIBRARY OF VIRGINIA Today’s libraries evolve, expand offerings, and buzz with activity FALL 2008 ibraries have changed dramatically during the past 25 years, l i b r a r i a n o f v i r g i n i a especially in the way they look, feel, and sound. Gone in Sandra G. Treadway L most cases are the heavy furniture, the monochromatic color l i b r a r y b o a r d c h a i r scheme, and the rarified atmosphere that gave rise to the Valerie Jean Mayo stereotype of the “shushing” librarian. Today’s libraries—even academic and research libraries—are vibrant places filled e d i t o r i a l b o a r d with people using dynamic new media; interacting in study Janice M. Hathcock and discussion groups; visiting exhibitions; sipping coffee in Ann E. Henderson library cafés; or attending lectures, meetings, story hours, Gregg D. Kimball and community events. Libraries continue to perform all their Mary Beth McIntire traditional functions, but they are also finding new ways to Suzy Szasz Palmer offer resources and staff expertise to a public that is increasingly interested in engaging e d i t o r with others in a lifelong learning environment.

Henderson The Library of Virginia has embraced this change, and, as the Richmond Times- Dispatch recently observed, our building “throbs with activity.” At least once a week, c o p y e d i t o r visitors flock to the Library to hear writers speak about their newly released books.
