Ontario Public Library Week 2020
One card, endless possibilities!
Oakville Public Library is celebrating Ontario Public Library Week (OPLW) from October 18-24, 2020. During this week, libraries across Ontario raise awareness of the valuable role of public libraries.
Libraries are doors into the knowledge of the world — community pillars committed to reducing barriers, providing outlets for creative expression and promoting literacy and lifelong learning. During OPLW, we are taking the opportunity to celebrate and highlight the treasured role of our institution in Oakville’s community and cultural fabric.
What to Expect – Highlights
- New service launches: Permanent elimination of overdue fines and OPL Express Browse & Borrow Kiosk
- Special virtual programming like our intergenerational Books to Movie Trivia Game, Library Love panel with OPL staff, and baking demonstrations in partnership with the Town of Oakville
- New reading challenges: Read Woke Canada and 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
- Team OPL stories on Instagram and Facebook
