Have you seen the Library’s new Happy or Not kiosks? The recently-installed terminals are located at Library branch exits, inviting our customers to “Please Rate our Service Today.”

The feedback provided through the kiosks will help us with our ongoing commitment to provide exceptional customer service to our community.

Demand for eAudiobooks is skyrocketing, but a number of bestselling titles aren't available to Canadian public libraries. We want to share as many stories and ideas as possible in the formats you want. In order for this to happen, the multinational publishers need to work directly with libraries like us to make titles available. Here's what you can do.
