NaNoWriMo Ready Set Go! is a program designed to encourage and support National Novel Writing Month participants.

The program will be both passive and active. This is the PASSIVE portion, which includes six take-home prep kits provided to patrons each Monday from September 16th to October 28th (skipping October 6th due to location closure). Each prep kit will include tips and tasks that build on one another, creating a six-week preparation routine. This passive portion will conclude on November 1st. Stop by EVPL West anytime during open hours on participating Mondays to pick up your prep kit. A limited number of kits will be available while supplies last. 

Due to the historical nature of the EVPL East, West, and Stringtown buildings their meeting rooms are not fully ADA accessible. If you are interested in participating in a program that is not accessible, please contact that location to arrange alternate accommodations.

About the branch

Located at 2000 W Franklin St., EVPL West was one of three original libraries built in Evansville with funds donated by Andrew Carnegie. Along with EVPL East, it was dedicated and opened to the public on January 1, 1913. Renovated in 2003, the building is surrounded by a park-like setting that is home to annual events like the Farmer’s Market and West Side Nut Club Fall Festival. EVPL West features a spacious meeting room, public access computers, and comfortable adult and youth areas.
