With the ongoing pandemic restricting the activities that adults and children typically enjoy, the North Hastings Public Library has made a point in ramping up the resources it has available to keep all ages occupied, engaged and excited about learning something new.
“Our new events person hasn’t even started yet but already, we have expanded the variety of books and other resources at NHPL so there is something for everyone,” says CEO Kimberly McMunn.
One of the key collection improvements is curriculum support. NHPL received $12,500 in funding from Prince Edward County Communities Foundation under the Emergency Community Support Fund for curriculum support books and two early literacy computers in a project called, “Knowledge at the Library is Free – Bring Your Own Container,” says McMunn.
