Cloudette

In Cloudette, by Tom Lichtenheld, a smaller than average cloud is happy and well-adjusted to her life in the sky. Being small gives her all sorts of advantages such as cute nicknames, great hiding places and the best view of the fireworks. But when the big clouds sail off to create storms and to water the fields, Cloudette gets the urge to do something big and important, too. So off she goes to find a job.

She could work at the firehouse or the garden center or even at the car wash. But nothing works out until she comes across a dry, barren patch of ground that used to be a pond. Cloudette has an idea! She puffs herself up until she becomes a rain cloud and finally discovers a job just right for a little cloud.

Snapshot of a day in the life of Salem Church library

April 17-30 (April 18-27 at the CRRL), Libraries all over Virginia will be taking a "snapshot" - collecting information this spring to capture the impact that Virginia libraries have on their communities on a typical day.

How does the library make a difference in your life?

Let us know Monday, April 18 - Wednesday, April 27 at your CRRL branch:

Monday, April 18:  Salem Church, Snow (Spotsylvania)

Tuesday, April 19:  Headquarters (Fredericksburg), Porter (Stafford), Cooper (Westmoreland)

Saturday, April 23:  Montross (Westmoreland)

Tuesday, April 26:  England Run (Stafford)

Wednesday, April 27:  Newton (Westmoreland)

We're always happy to hear your comments, but gettting your feedback on these days is especially important!


SnapshotVA: One Day in the Life of Virginia's libraries

We'll take your answers and let you know what other people all around the state think of their libraries and how they use them.  Results and pictures will be posted on the SnapshotVA blog on June 15.

SnapshotVA is a project of the Virginia Library Association and the Library of Virginia.
