A family's haven

As a young family, the Ottawa Public Library – Elmvale Acres branch – has been a cornerstone of our neighborhood life : from participating to baby and me / toddler time, borrowing books (as well as buying the library’s used books at a very low cost) and hanging out in the kids’ section (playing with the activity walls, building blocks and coloring sheets). We love spending time there, always with a warm welcome from a very knowledgeable, helpful and patient staff. As a bilingual family, we also love that we can find bilingual resources for both us and our twins…

Great help

The first time I came to Canada, I didn’t have a personal computer. Ottawa library was the first place to think about, I could use all the facilities to prepare my C.V, apply for jobs, submit applications, print and fill forms. Also, it was there where I heard about the free tax clinics which can help you filing taxes.As a newcomer, Ottawa library was a great help. Thank you a lot.
