Libraries

Our libraries offer a range of services and programs for seniors. Come in and read or borrow books, magazines, large print books, spoken word books and more. Looking to get online? We provide free access to the web, and you can hire a computer or smart device while you're at the library.

If you require some assistance in using a computer or smart device (i.e. a smart phone or tablet), we're happy to help. Also on offer are our Book Clubs, Knit 'n' Knatter, and a number of other programs and classes.
