Salutations,
I t is with great pleasure that the Vancouver
Area Network of Drug Users submit this letter
of support for the Sruot Gallery, and Hans
Winkler's project the Nova Library.
A project which will assemble a reading room assignee by the
tastes of the addict community, and to be housed in the Vancou/er
Public Library. VANDU has a keen interest where this project may
lead to in the future. The Vancouver Area Networks believes that
users or people being introduced to the active drug culture can
benefit from this project t and the room will appeal to some
residents, and patrons of the library.
Will it house resource materials?, self help?, f ction? No am
knows, but there may be value to researchers in u iderstandtng
what users are reading. We foresee benefits pre* ed in this
project that will benefit both users, and the community. We look
forward to providing input on what books the Nova ! brary will
house, and eagerly await to take advantage the final product.
I f you have questions fee! free to contact Christopher Livingstone
