A new era begins at Gibsons Library

I am honoured and thrilled to be able to write this article as the new Library Director. I believe that in this time of mass technological change, and information overload, that libraries have never been more important to community life. We are here to assist you with navigating the online world; to offer you a warm, welcoming place to connect and learn; and to provide the very best books, dvd’s, magazines, databases and other online resources available.

On Nov. 4, we had a wonderful celebration for our new children’s area with a jaw- dropping show by local magician The Amazing J. Thank you to everyone in our special community for making this new area possible, with special thanks to major donors, the Gibsons Lions Club, Howe Sound Pulp and Paper, and the Gibsons Library Foundation.  Please come and check out our renovated fresh space and grab one of the many new children’s books to enjoy. Bouncing Baby and Preschool Storytimes are also back in action: a great way to connect and improve literacy with the little ones in your life.

As the rain approaches, why not enjoy some armchair travel stories. We have an abundant travel collection, and many non-fiction titles that include tales of adventure from around the world. Author Paul Shore will be presenting his new book “Uncorked: My Year in Provence” on Wed. Nov. 15 at 6pm.

A vibrant environmental forum on Sustainable Living will take place on Nov. 22: a chance to learn about green energy, how to reduce your footprint,

Our skilled and knowledgeable library staff are always here to help you find the resources and programs you need and want. For further information on any of our services or programs, call (604) 886-2130 or check out our website www.gibsons.bclibrary.ca
