With a collection of over 470,000 fiction and non-fiction books, more than 800 magazine and newspaper titles, the Durham County Library stands tall with its services in Durham. Research and Reference, Business Reference, Community Services and Job help are some of its functions. Kids, Teens, Movies, Music e-books and more.
One of the goals of the library is to provide educational and entertaining Audio Visual materials to the patrons. The library offers videotapes, DVDs, cassettes and C.Ds. The database available for reference here is wide, vast and large.
The LIFT (Learning Information for Today) Librarian is the super cool service offered by the library to help with job searching, proofreading resumes and cover letters, and practicing to interview.
I was offerred a brief visit to the wings of the library when I attended a lecture on ''Religion and Politics in the 21st century'' by Mr. Seth Donald of Duke University. The meeting hall of the library is open for the free and purposeful public meetings.
I am Vamsi Krishna, trained graduate teacher in Math, working for Kendriya Vidyalaya in India,presently on a 'Fulbright'assignment as an exchange teacher, working at Hill Side New Tech High School, Durham, N.C, USA. I am bringing forth the best of my experiences in the U.S. Wish me time and opportunity.
