About the Library
The establishment of the Spring Village Library was done
predominantly thought the contributions and efforts of Spring Village
Associations abroad. The project is spearheaded by the New York Chapter and
consists of a partnership with the Spring Village Development Foundation
which is a local body dedicated to the growth and development of the citizens
of Spring Village.
The Library provides books, magazines, online newspapers,
audio cassettes, videos, reference services, and library programs for
residents. It currently owns over
10,000 volumes and provides access to various online databases.
The library has seven public workstations equipped with
high-speed internet access as well as word processing and other educational
programs. In addition, it also has
Ethernet router connections for Laptop access. Resources such as our catalog and online
databases are also accessible to patrons through their home internet
connections.
In the future the library would like to reach shut-ins
including the visually impaired with resources such as books on tape.
Currently it has a sizable number of these items which would prove quite
useful in these situations.
The preservation of the History of Spring Village is also
an important function of the library and as time goes by, it will archive key
information such as books, photographs, audio/video tapes and artifacts which
are pertinent to the history of Spring Village.
The library is established chiefly through the efforts of
volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering please contact the
librarian or send an email to pothousepen@yahoo.com.
