FALL/WINTER OVAL BOOKS BY MAIL CATALOG
"A library branch right in your own mailbox!"

The Ohio Valley Area Libraries (OVAL) and the public libraries of Gallia,
Jackson, Ross, and Vinton counties are proud to announce the opening of "new
branches" in mailboxes throughout each county with the availability of the
new Fall/Winter Books by Mail Catalog ( bbm.oval.lib.oh.us/bbmcatalog.pdf )
and Internet Ordering System ( bbm.oval.lib.oh.us/ ). All residents of the
above-mentioned counties can use this FREE service!

Are you looking for a good book? Enjoy the convenience of a library branch
as close as your own mailbox. Select and order entertaining books from the
new Books by Mail catalog in your home or on the Internet at
bbm.oval.lib.oh.us. Books by Mail has an excellent selection of paperback
novels that include mystery, romance, horror, science fiction, and western
titles - some even in large print. You may also choose from the many
biographies and books on health, crime and crafts. Young adults and children
will also find books they like in the catalog. There are more than 1,400
books available FREE through Books by Mail with ten new titles added each
month!

The Books by Mail service is available to all residents of Gallia, Jackson,
Ross, and Vinton counties. Those using the service may select and order
their books from the print catalog or by using our Internet Catalog and
Ordering System, now being used by over 400 patrons. "Those libraries using
the Books by Mail service," says OVAL Director Jimmie Epling, "find it is an
excellent way to reach people who are limited by such things as disability
or inability to travel or those who just simply want the convenience of
ordering over the Internet." Books by Mail makes it possible for the public
libraries in Gallia, Jackson, Ross, and Vinton counties to reach all
residents by opening a branch right in their mailbox.

Let your local public library and OVAL open a branch in your mailbox! The
latest catalog will soon arrive in the mailboxes of all rural residents in
Gallia, Jackson, Ross, and Vinton counties. If you don’t receive a catalog
in your mailbox, call your local public library or call OVAL at
1-800-759-1537, extension #1. Begin using Books by Mail today by going to
the award winning Internet Catalog and Ordering System at
bbm.oval.lib.oh.us!
