Libraries mentioned in Midwives:
p.144: "The Vermont midwives...conducted 'teach-ins' to explain home birth at public libraries in St. Johnsbury and Montpelier."

p. 271: "It was still pouring, so Tom and I ate our sandwiches in the front seat of the rusty Sunbird his older brother had finished repairing but would not be picked up by its owner until the end of the week. He had double-parked beside the Newport Library, an austere brick, almost imposing monolith across Main Street from the courthouse."
