The League for the Advancement of New England Storytelling (LANES) recently donated a large audiostory collection to the Nashua Public Library.

In celebration of its 25th anniversary, LANES is donating these collections to selected public libraries throughout the region. This project, Get The Words Out, was created to honor the ongoing collaboration between storytellers and libraries as well as the support libraries have shown the storytelling community throughout New England.

The collection of CDs and cassette tapes contains the work of more than 50 regional storytellers and is diverse in both style and content. The recordings are also available to customers of other libraries through interlibrary loan.
