I have started playing agan and downloaded Maple Valley to give that a go. Out of the blue decided that the good people (they're not all good by the way, some are downright nasty!!) of Maple Valley needed a library. I didn't want to build a modern monstrosity, I wanted something with a bit of Character and History, to reflect the families residing in non harmony in Maple Valley! So The Maple Valley Historic Library was born.



What did this building use to be? Turns out no one knows, it's a mystery! Was it a church? Well the architecture sure looks it, but theres something not so church like about it! Some of the remaining artifacts are pointing to a different story, theres the big book on the pedastal for one thing, no one can read it and at night time it's been reported to glow (thats my imagination by the way it doesnt actually, sorry to disappoint!) Then theres the important looking men etched onto the wall, who were they? And the bust found in the basement and brought up for display, he doesn't look very church like, but who was he?! And the ever watchful ladies, just what have they been seeing all these years? And lastly the basement itself, theres a whole row of mysterious bookcases that just don't match the rest of the bookcases! What was this place?!! Have fun weaving your own story around this historic Library!

Before we continue, there is a shopping list for this one. I'm sorry I really don't like making you guys go get things. Most of it is the book deco as there were so many recolours I didn't know what I had used and what I hadn't.

Please install all this BEFORE you download the rest of the lot!

Gothic windows by Cyclone Sue
London Arch by Curious B
Childrens Books by Big Bad Bunny
Bookstore set (site not working right now have uploaded to fileshare and will change when its back) by Nanashi
BBB Books by Riekus13
Pocket Books by Yulia
And Lastly I have included Verankas Script File in the downloads. Easiest way to install is using Numenors Scriptorium or if you don't have/want scriptorium follow this patrh C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSData\Res\Catalog\Scripts\

So now you've installed that, heres what the library has to offer!

Coffee counter
There are two sales counters, the deco books you can 'pretend' they are being checked out if you set them to sell.
Study area
Toilets
Childrens section
Basement with computers and something to explore (sorry it's actually not as exciting as I'm making it out to be! )
Magazine rack

And thats it, have fun and please let me know if any problems!
