Did you know that the Library offers free class and group visits? We tailor our visits to your students’ or group's needs. We’ve done storytimes, eResource demos, Deep Learning Inquiry Project support, TD Summer Reading Club presentations, Girl Guide and Scout badges, and so much more. We can even arrange to visit your classroom, meeting, or event!
