The Nevada Author Project is back this spring! We are looking for local authors to enter their original work(s) of adult and/or young adult fiction for a chance to be recognized as the top indie-published eBook in Nevada. Winning authors will reach hundreds, if not thousands, of new readers, and can leverage being an award-winning indie author for additional marketing opportunities. This contest is a fantastic way to elevate your writing career and expand your readership.

Try something new and radical and, best of all, simple: Be kind.

New Way to Help Support the Library District Foundation!
The Las Vegas-Clark County Library District Foundation has introduced an easy-to-use new service that allows you to "Round-Up" and donate your spare change to help support critical library programs. You can set and control how much you want to give each month by setting a maximum limit, and every time you use your debit or credit card, we will automatically round up your purchases to the nearest dollar amount. For example, a purchase of $20.95 would round-up to $21, so you would be donating 5 cents (Minimum monthly round-up requirement of $9.99 to participate). You can also choose a one-time or monthly donation amount. By enrolling in this service, your small change from every day purchases can add up to big change for the community!
