Go Greener Collection

Go Greener is a collection of books aimed at informing and supporting our knowledge and understanding of the world around us and how we can support and add to the sustainability of this world. Climate change is upon us as greenhouse gas emissions blanket the earth and trap the sun’s heat. Our world is now warming faster than at any time in recorded history. The books in our collection are aimed at very young readers to older adults. There are both non-fiction and fictional stories to share with everyone.

Rainbow Revolution Collection

Rainbow Revolution – liveArgyll libraries are welcome to all and all are welcome. We are providers of information, knowledge and history assessable to all. In this age of equality, our Rainbow Revolution collection provides information and stories about sexuality and gender identity. Again, the books are both fiction and non-fiction sharing a history of the LGBTQ+ community supporting all ages.
