As the team at ODU Libraries continues its work toward building a new, permanent home for the legendary 43,000+ title Naro Expanded Video, we’re drawn to the plight of Mary the Party Girl (Parker Posey). When the fashionable, falafel-fed scenester ends up in the clink for throwing one too many illegal parties, she agrees to work off her bail debt behind the desk of the New York Public Library. A library—we can all agree—is not exactly a party, but as Mary settles into life amongst the books, she comes to realize that she can use her newfound library powers to help her friends succeed.
