This has been my home branch for the last 24 years. My children grew up going to this branch at least once a week. My son’s grade 3 teacher took his class there every week, after making sure every student had a library card. We would watch the kids play at the park across the street before heading over to pick up new books, then head back to school, just in time for recess.
The selection of foreign language books is a great boon to this neighbourhood and local school children come there to borrow books and attend homework clubs. The library also hosts a toy lending library and story times for preschool children. This branch really is at the heart of this community.

What a library should be.
