Did you Know....?
Though Prince Edward Island is tiny, is it known as the Birthplace of Confederation; Nova Scotia was one of the first four provinces to join Canada in 1867.
There is still room in the activities that will take place at the Library this week. If you would like to register your child for an activity, please come see us at the Summer Reading Club desk.
We will have our last weekly draw next Monday morning. Please don't forget to bring your summer reading bookmarks to the Library!
Please note that the deadline to bring in your bookmarks for coupons is Friday, August 11. We will continue to accept bookmarks until next Tuesday, but no coupons will be awarded after Friday, August 11.
