Goodbye for Now… See You at the Library
This is my final At Your Library column. I'm grateful to Kathy O’Reilly, indefatigable publisher of The Eagle, for giving me this opportunity. When I came to Port Hardy – exactly three years ago – I didn't know a soul, and now I feel so much a part of our community. This column has extended our library's reach into that community, and I hope you have enjoyed it.
To stay in touch with what's happening at the Vancouver Island Regional Library (VIRL), consider subscribing to Well Read, VIRL's monthly newsletter. It will keep you up to date on new services, special events, and highlights from our collection. To subscribe, go to virl.bc.ca > news > Well Read. You can read it online, or click on "Sign up for our e-Newsletter" to receive it by email every month.
Another great way to stay in touch is "Meet Me in the Stacks", a podcast presented by a group of VIRL librarians. You can find "Meet Me in the Stacks" wherever you subscribe to podcasts, or you can listen online through the VIRL website. Go to virl.bc.ca/podcast or to listen online, go to virl.bc.ca/podcast/listen-now/.
Your favourite VIRL branch is also on Facebook, and you can follow the branch page for news and updates.
To review and sum up, here's everything you need to know.
* Reading is great.
* Read to your kids and grandkids. Help them read on their own. It's super important to their healthy development.
* The library has so much more than books. Check out our e-resources!
* Everything at the library is free of charge.
* Everyone can have a library card.
* We are here to help you.
