The Owen Sound & North Grey Union Public Library has extended the term of the city’s poet laureate Richard-Yves Sitoski, who is set to launch his legacy project Tuesday.
The library board approved the one-year extension late last month “in recognition of both the current challenges involved in presenting public performances” and Sitoski’s “exemplary work as poet laureate,” a position he’s held since Oct. 1, 2019.
