Yesterday was SO FUN, and a great little fundraiser for the library. We painted our partners, and we didn’t reveal until the end! It was hilarious. Thank you all for coming! Thank you Getty’s for letting us takeover!

Jr Library Board is active again. This is very exciting to me, the youth at the library have creativity that I can only dream of. They help with fundraising, remodel ideas for their space, advice on current authors and books for their collection. Maybe, most importantly insisting and helping the library find ways to meet their goals to keep the library a destination that is useful and interesting.
The Library got a technology grant for a new all in one printer/fax/copier we need. Our current set up is technically ancient. The donation jars we put around town collected most of what we needed for our share of the purchase. Thanks to everyone for their generosity, donating to make Toronto Library the best it can be.

First Game Night at the Grumpy Bear

Outside Time
I told them I’d 100% live in any world they build.
February Stay & Play
One of our first tiny Stay & Play babies WALKED into the library today! We had NEW friends too, and we had such fun! We also had a good sized after school group today.
Puppets
Backstage access to a very serious production.
3D Drawing
He said “I want a guitar keychain” and the library said “bet.” He drew this file himself. Teens are not to be feared. The future is in good hands!
YA
The YA section really said: new books, the good chair, and snacks? Say less.
