We have on our shelves excellent books on its History and we are building our Virginia Reference Shelf with the best Authors.

This is being done by encouraging every person in the County who has information about people, places and things pertaining to the beginnings and life of Rappahannock, both before and after its founding in 1833, to register that information with the Library. This can be done by letter, contributions of old records, books, pictures, etc. All contributions can be made on a restrictive or limited basis. Perhaps later we will be able to secure funds to make outright purchases possible. 1964 will see a possible 100,000 cars passthrough Rap* pahannock. Some of these will stop to ask questions. They will want to know something about this beautiful land nestled in the embrace of the most important section of the Virginia Blue Ridge. Why not “bone* up a bit by dropping by the Library for some Virginia book's? Then we may be able to truly fulfill “A certain obligation."
