The Youth Advisory Committee was formed to give teens a comfortable place to express their opinions about what the Bracebridge Library is currently doing and what they would like to see the library do in the future.
Committee members gain volunteer hours from participating in the program.
The committee meets every Wednesday from 4:00 - 5:00 p.m. at the Coulson Family Bracebridge Library.
The Visiting Library Service is a free service for some patrons who may be unable to visit the Bracebridge Library in person.
Patrons may request items such as books, audiobooks, DVDs, and magazines, among other materials. They will be delivered to their home at a pre-arranged time.
Staff who help with deliveries are required to undergo a security screening.
