We will head to the Slover Library at 12 noon on Thursday, May 19, for a  VIP tour of this award-winning library that is one of the most beautiful and technologically advanced libraries in the country. Chip Finch will be our Rotary host, and David Sullivan, who heads the library, will be our guide. On our tour we will see the Rotary Club of Norfolk's name carved in the donor wall for our club's support of this library that opened in 2015. We will also stop by the Sargent Memorial Collection where our club's 102 years of minute books, directories, photos and memorabilia now reside. You will also see the lively children's area, 3D printers and other components that make this library extra special. Going on this field trip counts as a meeting or makeup.

 

The library is at 235 E. Plume Street in downtown Norfolk. The closest parking is in MacArthur Center on the Dillard's side or in the city lot at Plume and Bank Streets (across from the old Bank of America Building). Both are about a block away. You can also ride the Tide to the MacArthur station across the street.
