Veterans Day Tribute Online

Welcome to Wood Library's special Web Event -- Veterans Day Tribute Online. Hi, I'm Barbara Henry, Adult Services Librarian. Thank you for dropping by to honor and remember our veterans. Please. take the time to say "thank you" to a veteran this month. If you are a veteran, thank you for your service.

We are pleased to present two films online that you can watch anytime and anywhere you want during the month. The Vietnam Mailbag video was recorded at Wood Library on October 14, 2009. The Medal of Honor documentary is provided by PBS and Hulu.com. We live in a marvelous age of technology that allows us to share these films with you in your home.

After you watch the films, you may share your thoughts with others by clicking "the comments" link at the bottom of this post. Did you like the program? Take the poll in the upper right corner.

The book Vietnam Mailbag is available for borrowing from any library in the four-county OWWL system. Many libraries in our system own a copy of the book. Here is the link to the catalog to search and place a hold. -- Barbara Henry, Wood Library Adult Services Librarian.
