Does you local library carry wrestling dvds and/or books?

[wildojinx]

I volunteer at my local library, and I noticed that our library recently got Night Of Champions 2014 in (it's the only wrestling dvd there). It must have been a donation, but it makes me wonder, does your library have wrestling dvds, for that matter, do they even carry wrestling books (outside of some books in the children's section aimed at 2nd-3rd graders, none at ours, they did get in Jericho's second book when it came out, but someone must have checked it out and never returned it, as it disappeared soon after).

A lot of the wrestling books I have read but do not own were borrowed from the library.

My local library had lots of Wrestling DVDs/VHS releases back 10 or so years ago, not sure how it is nowadays.

I did rent the Bret Hart book from there years back, which was a decent read.

Plenty of WWE DVDs in the Young Adult section, as well as one of those WWE Encyclopedias they've put out.

WWF and WCW stuff and the high profile books like Foley's

[Doctor Of Style]

Yeah, they have wrestling books. That's how I read Bobby Heenan's books, Eric Bischoff's book and Foley is Good. Never looked for DVDs.

I remember borrowing Summerslam 2009 from the library many years ago. I later bought it on DVD at Borders. I also borrowed Final Resolution 2007 from the library. I think they also carried Wrestlemania 25 in the past.

[James Fabiano]

Yes, we do.

Of course, it's the AWF Warriors of Wrestling set.

I requested the local library get Jerichos second book. Never look at their dvds.

Finally got a chance to think about what they had wrestling-wise.

Jericho's first two books (Borrowed the second, seems to be a theme.)
Billy Robinson's book (Never read it, it's 132 pages. Seemed skimpy.)
Terry Funk (Well, he WAS born here in Hammond; dad Dory Sr. was a 3-time state high school wrestling champion for the Wildcats.)
The book on Shooters (That was good, I should actually buy it.)

And a lot of the well-known ones: Foley's first 2, Lita, Austin, Bret, etc.

I really am tempted to buy another copy of "When It Was Big Time" by Rock Rims just to donate it to them. (Roy Shropshire also went to Hammond High.)

The library I work at doesn't have any wrestling books that aren't targeted to children but they have plenty of DVDs. Quite a few PPVS and even a few you wouldn't expect like Capital Punishment 2011 for some reason. There's also some collection DVDs like Angle's, Warrior's and The Rock's.
