February may be the shortest month of the year, but 2024 is special because it’s a leap year! And that means we have an extra 24 hours this month to dive into our favourite reads!
Stay tuned to our website and social media pages for Spring 2024 program information coming soon!

Did you know we offer a tutoring program at the library? Student to Student Tutoring Connections is a program where we connect honours students to younger students in need of homework help.

Looking for a great read? Staff are loving author Travis Baldtree’s low-stakes high-fantasy series! Dive into Legends & Lattes and Bookshops & Bonedust, the first two books in the series.
