• If you need to print something, try the computers + printer in Student Services.

• If you’d like to browse for a book to borrow, a cart full of novels will be available outside the library daily during lunch.
• Want to Reserve a book and pick it up at lunch? Get the library app, or login to your library account and Reserve the book(s) you’d like to borrow.
• If you are not sure what you want to read next and like surprises, request a BOOK BUNDLE.
• RETURN your library books to the Return Cart that will be outside the library all week.

In honour of National Poetry Month, the #FirstPageFriday pick is the novel-in-verse CROSSING STONES by Helen Frost.

Introducing: Two families who live close together and the children have grown up as close friends.

The set up: The two older brothers enlist in World War I, and their 2 younger sisters experience the impacts of the war at home.

What happens: Will both boys make it home? How do their sisters change because of war? How does this affect their friendships? What about love — lost or found?

Stop by the library and check out the display of NOVELS IN VERSE and POETRY books, in celebration of National Poetry Month!

And while you’re here, pause and become a poet — write a Haiku and add it to the display.
