Like most people, we get pretty excited about shiny new things! When the furniture delivery truck pulled up to the Brooklin Branch, our Staff were eagerly waiting for the moment they could rip the plastic off for the big reveal. The gorgeous chairs and couches looked exactly as we hoped. The warm tones that Brooklin Branch is famous for are complemented by the new furniture's splash of colour.
Whenever we survey our patrons for feedback, our welcoming spaces top the list of things they love about the Whitby Library.(along with our Staff and our collections). We hear consistently that our locations are a place to connect, recharge, work, and engage.
One of our priorities is to provide welcoming spaces for our community. Every day, we approach this important goal in a variety of different ways. From a helpful interaction with one of our Staff to easy access to our collections, to an overall welcoming vibe, it's all part of the Library's mission to make our patrons feel a sense of belonging. A fresh pop of colour can light up a room. Stop by the Brooklin Branch and take a seat! We'd love to hear what you think of our new look.
