About Us

  • Check out our digital library.

  • Any books that you wish to borrow and we do not carry in our Libraries we can gladly try to get you any book from another collection in the Province.

    Note: At this time we cannot offer patron initiated interlibrary loans. What this means is; patrons can ask staff either in the library or through email to order a book for them from another library in the Province. Inter-Library loans normally take two (2) to six (6) weeks to be delivered. As of Spring 2019 all interlibrary loans are delivered to the branch through Canada Post.scription
