The Prince George Public Library graciously hosted us and gave us a presentation. They focused on services, kits available for teachers, how to do anything there, and a tour of the building.
The biggest surprise was that they host adult education and provide them with tutoring and internet services. The library is a place for everyone. Learning and entertainment. There were also games, movies, and music!
For teachers, there are a huge array of kits for teaching. They can provide resources that might not be otherwise available at your current school. This way, resources can be equal in the community and be available for anyone for free!
Online resources are also a huge part of the library. The world is moving more and more towards online technology. The library is there to facilitate resources but also teach anyone how to use them.
A library is more than a compilation of books. It is also resources that might be expensive or unaccessible for some, community building art and other events, education and literacy of physical resources and digital media, and entertainment to take a break that includes magazines, music, movies, etc.
Going to the library can be a solo discovery or a group activity. Looking up the events the library offers can help you find community in a new town. If you are new to Prince George, visit the local library and talk to a librarian, they could set you on a new adventure to find like-minded individuals who enjoy the same subjects as you. They don’t only sort books but can also catalogue your interests!
