There
are only two more weeks left in the Spring 2014 semester, which means that our
patrons could probably use a brain break. Never fear, because while YOUR Alexandria
library is a primary source for things scholarly it is also a great
place to access quality entertainment.
Our
feature film collection is a wonderful case in point. YOUR Alexandria campus
library contains hundreds of films that cater to our patrons diverse viewing needs. The
library’s movies range from very serious documentaries to lighthearted
comedies. Patrons can locate these items by browsing the shelves nearest the
stairs, or by searching through the library’s catalog for feature films. All
movies in the collection can be checked out for a week at a time. Eager movie
fans can also access and watch these films in the library using their own computers
or using the library’s own audiovisual equipment.
One
of the greatest things about film collection is its freshness. Our librarians
are constantly adding feature and documentaries film titles to our shelves
that draw from diverse genres, cultures, and points of view. Here is a brief highlight
of five of our latest movie acquisitions that reflect the richness and variety of our holdings.
Take
out this classic by famed director Alfred Hitchcock when you crave suspense and
a jolt of adrenaline.
Imagine
being a musical icon and hero to millions without ever knowing it. This
documentary explores the unlikely stardom of one Detroit construction worker.
This heartbreaking indie drama, about the caregivers and children in a short term foster care
facility, is the perfect antidote to the overdone Hollywood blockbuster.
This
lovely French film, based on a true story, details the ways that friendships
can shape and change us.
An
awkward teen strikes up an unlikely friendship with a water park employee in
this coming of age comedy.
Come into YOUR Alexandria Campus Library to borrow these titles or explore our entire collection.
