Exactly one year ago today, we closed the doors to our buildings. Who would have thought that a year later, we would be helping community members book COVID vaccination appointments?

@LRlibrarian Congratulations Laura! May the games begin ....

Hey @WaterlooLibrary is this what I think it is #newlibraryconstruction ?

The office smells lovely today (even through my mask)!

Kitchener Public Library's chief executive, Mary Chevreau, wants the new community library in Kitchener’s southwest to be a destination that’s inviting, accessible to all, and nestled in the midst of plenty of green space. therecord.com/news/waterloo-…

Congratulations @ChevreauMary @KitchLibrary for your appointment as Chair, Canadian Urban Libraries Council!

Preparing for the next phase of reopening @KitchLibrary. Keeping our staff and customers safe!

The Friday Curb and Carry team! Excited to welcome customers back to @KitchLibrary for hold pickup.

Libraries are one of the most valued services by @CityKitchener residents. Congrats to @ChevreauMary & the entire @KitchLibrary team as you resumed library services this past week! #LibrariesRock

"Libraries also became information hubs, community centres, a place to learn new skills, to be part of an online book club, a place that enabled you to create your own story instead of reading someone else's." 🥰 therecord.com/opinion-story/…

Yeah team!
