Program

We work in partnership with a variety of community organizations including: OEYC (Ontario Early Years), Middlesex Health Unit, LIHC (London Intercommunity Health Centre), Hutton House, NELCE (Northeast London Community Engagement) and LUSO Community Services. We create services and programs that help to make us the “hub” of the community. For instance, we are providing dual language storytimes, we have begun an Immigrant Seniors Group in partnership with LIHC.

Our services and programs provide you with reading material and internet access but also with a place to meet and talk, a place to study (we have 3 study rooms to offer) and a place to enjoy and relax. You can challenge yourself with a new book, learn word processing, access on-line databases, play games on the computer, set up an e-mail account and watch a movie. The library provides endless ways to enrich the mental, physical and spiritual parts of your life.
