VERSE HEADED FOR ROUND LAKE AREA LIBRARY

The Round Lake Area Library in Round Lake Illinois is just a few
donations shy from becoming well-versed in the worlds created by Joss
Whedon. We hope to be able to donate a complete set of Buffy, Angel
and Firefly in the next two weeks.

If you still think of the public library as a silent, almost empty
place with librarians wearing their hair in buns and "shushing"
everyone, with only books, books, books as far as the eye can see,
then you really need to come in and see how your library has changed!
The Round Lake Area Library is really hopping! They have close to
20,000 patrons in their database, there are more than 3,000 computer
sessions each month, and an average of 23,000 people per month are
visiting and using the library.

Patrons can check out books in both English and Spanish, DVDs, CDs,
digital cameras, and audio books. Pretty neat, huh?

FIREFLY RAFFLE!

The Whedonverse Multimedia Project is raffling off a chance to win
Firefly the complete series on DVD which contains all 14 episodes
plus special features such as episode commentaries and deleted
scenes. In addition, we're offering the book Finding Serenity which
is a collection of essays about the Firefly series edited by Jane
Espenson and Glenn Yeffeth.

From now until June 15th every $5 you donate will automatically enter
you into the raffle drawing. All proceeds from the raffle go to
providing Buffy, Angel, and Firefly DVDs to public libraries.

MODESTO SAYS THANKS!

Dear Whedonverse,

We have received all the "Buffy", "Angel" and "Firefly" DVDs you so
generously donated to the Modesto Public Library. We are sure that
they will be extremely popular and are a nice tribute to our former
resident, James Marsters.

Yours Truly,
Katherine Johnson/ Media Collection Department
