We’re getting LOUD for LIBRARIES! 📚📣

We kicked off Ontario Public Library Week bright and early with a visit from Michelle Arbuckle, Executive Director of the ontariolibraryassociation, and Dina Stevens, Executive Director of the Federation of Ontario Public Libraries.

Michelle and Dina joined CBC London Morning to talk about the important role public libraries play in our communities, the difference they make in people’s lives, and why strong partnerships with all levels of government matter.

Want to get LOUD for LIBRARIES? Tell your elected officials what your library means to you. How do you use it? What difference has it made in your life? Your stories help show why libraries matter.

Happy Ontario Public Library Week! 💙
