High bchool students!’ If you are going to college next year and don’t know how to operate a microfiche machine, you should come to the library and learn how to use one. You will be expected to know how in college. All of the college and university libraries in Virginia are now on the CAVALIR network and so are many of the larger public library systems. Using this network we can obtain books from all over the state through inter-library loan.
