Newfoundland & Labrador Libraries Get in the Festive Spirit!

Posted on

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the Newfoundland & Labrador Library Association! To fill you with holiday cheer, we thought we’d share some pics of libraries in our province decked and festooned for the season. Special thanks to Erin Alcock, Angela Menchion, Kelly Hatch, Chris Young, Louise McGillis, Jane Matthews (Fox), and Patsy Bowers for sending in pics of their creative decorations!

    Loved seeing the terrific holiday decorations at the various libraries, especially made me homesick for St. John’s! This is especially so as we are temporarily living in Wellington, New Zealand, for a few months where the Festive Season has a different appearance. Happy Christmas and have a good New Year!
