We love Campbell County. Here are some stories about our community, including the people who make this community a great place to work and live.
Our branches are Pokestops & Gyms
Good news, Pokemon Go players – our Newport Branch is a Pokestop and Gym, our Carrico Branch is a Gym and our Cold Spring Branch is a Pokestop.
So, what does that mean? Our branches are hotspots for Pokemon.
Stop by, catch a few Pokemon, use our free Wi-Fi and check out a book or two.
