I had a “spooktacular” visit to the Oak Hill Public Library (OHPL)!   The Library Teen (KEY) Advisory Board had just held their annual Harvest Party the night before my visit.  The Harvest Party features scary stories, a skit, songs, jokes as well as a haunted tour of the library.  The library was decorated “to the hilt”!  Director Peggy Johnson coordinates the event-filled calendar at OHPL.  The Saturday prior, Pulitzer Prize-nominated author Lester V. Horwitz visited the library to talk about Morgan’s Raid.  Horwitz’s book, The Longest Raid of the Civil War was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in History.

This library is very new, built in 2004.  Peggy gave me the nitty gritty tour- from the beautiful public area to the spacious technical room, which at the time of my visit was converted to a very spooky haunted house!  What a gorgeous building!  I would love nothing better than to sit down in the reading area beside the floor to cathedral ceiling windows and read a magazine article or book!  Thank you to the director and staff of the OHPL for a great visit!
