October is Canadian Library Month, so it's the perfect time to learn about the history of public libraries!
From their beginnings as subscription-based institutions, Canadian public libraries have changed significantly over time. Join us to take a look at their history and learn how they’ve evolved.
Registration is recommended, but drop-ins will be allowed if space permits.
