The president of the neighborhood association is excited to see the community put it to good use.

“This is just a very positive addition to round out South Roanoke as a great place to live,” said Barbara Duerk, the president of Neighbors in South Roanoke.

You can also request a book from another branch using the kiosk and someone will deliver it there.
