Canadian Library Month

October 1 to 31, 2023.
2023 Theme: Libraries for Life

During the month of October, libraries and library partners across Canada are raising awareness of the valuable role libraries play in Canadians' lives. More than just a place to find books, libraries promote cultural awareness, engage in the community, provide educational programs, support freedom of expression, and so much more!

We are celebrating Canadian Library Month with three new contests for our Port Colborne community. Stop by the library to pick up a form. For full contest details, please contact the library.
