A place for everyone

The library is truly one of my favourite places in the city. We always have several books checked out for every member of our family, and we check out DVDs and CDs as well. I have discovered new authors and new TV shows and movies while browsing the library shelves, and I often place holds on items too. I have brought my kids to many library events, from babytime and storytimes when they were young to March Break activities for teens. There have been many adult events that I have attended as well -- I even facilitated an event at the library once. It is a wonderful, welcoming, non-judgemental place to spend a few hours, one of the few places left in our society where someone can spend time without the expectation to spend money. I know there are many more resources available at the library that I personally haven't used, but that are beneficial to others. The library is a tremendous resource for our entire community.
