Please Forgive Our Virtual “Dust”!

The Granville County Library System is in the process of implementing a new Integrated Library System to keep track of our materials. As part of this process, we will be moving our data from the old to the new system. Over the course of the next month, this will have some impact on your ability to access our online catalog. If you need assistance with any of the activities you are usually able to do through the library’s online catalog, please call your local branch. Staff will be happy to assist you.

"The building is of inert materials . . . brick and wood and glass -- but the institution it houses is a living thing, like a young fruit tree, valuable now but nothing to what it will be when it comes into flower and then fruit, offering to the town beauty and fragrance and flavor through years that no one can calculate."

-- From the address given at the dedication of the Richard H. Thornton Library by Gerald W. Johnson on April 7th, 1963.
