In accordance with the province-wide lockdown, the Library will offer curbside pickup only. Place any item on request either using the online catalogue or over the phone. Staff are here to answer any questions, offer suggestions and help with placing requests. Staff will then contact you and schedule a time for curbside pickup.
The Library has launched a new Library catalogue. It is different than the old one but offers much more. If you are having trouble navigating the site, please call us and we will be happy to help. Access the catalogue from the Library's website (the red search button!) Remember to reset any bookmarks you have to the old catalgue. Search by author, title or subject. Request items, start a wish list, search large print, new DVDs & more.
We are excited to announce the return of our long-standing book club! Since the Library is still closed to the public we will try our restart in a virtual format. If you are interested in returning or joining as a new member, contact us at info@bracebridgelibrary.ca and a Zoom invite will be sent to you. The book club meets the last Wednesday of the month and discusses a different genre of book. The topic for the January meeting will be Best Reads of 2020.
Access free wifi from the Library parking lot behind the building. No library card or password is required. Bring your own device, go to the network settings, select Library WiFi and connect as a guest.
