LVA On the Go | Buchanan County Public Library

LVA On the Go | Buchanan County Public Library

The Library of Virginia is heading your way with LVA On the Go! Our custom van is bringing Library resources, staff expertise and programming to locations across Virginia. Partnering with public libraries and other organizations, our LVA On the Go ambassadors help you engage with local history, family history, the Library’s educational materials and more.

Events vary by location, but may include genealogy help, reference tutorials, Library account registration and children’s activities, as well as presentations on resources like Virginia Untold: The African American Narrative database and VirginiaChronicle.com, which provides access to over 4 million newspaper pages. Every community has a story to tell and our LVA On the Go project recognizes and celebrates local history and culture as we connect with every corner of the commonwealth.

Attendees at the Buchanan County Public Library event can watch Library staff presentations on these topics:

  • 10 a.m. - LVA Digital Resources (registering for a Library account, using our research materials)
  • 11 a.m. - Genealogy 101 (beginner family history reseach)
  • 1 p.m. - Virginia Chronicle (the Library's newspaper database)
