- It’s time to share the love, Williamsburg! Just a few days remain for the WMS Kindness Club’s “Have a Heart” campaign. Animal shelters across America house THOUSANDS of homeless pets — but often can’t provide even basic warmth and comfort. The Kindness Club will be collecting new or gently used towels and blankets for donation until the end-of-the-week. Collection bins are located in the main lobby by the library. So “have a heart” and “do your part” to support our furry friends in need!

Work with your TA to complete a bracket and make your pick for each round of the competition. Then wait for voting to open next week and see if you can win bragging rights for the March Madness Tournament of Books! Good luck wolves, and let’s get reading!
