Privacy Pods

The Manitoulin-Sudbury District Services Board (DSB) and the Espanola Public Library are pleased to be able to offer two private spaces, pods, for video-conferencing and virtual meetings. The DSB provided the majority of the funding, and the library provided the space, extended public service hours, and technological expertise. The goal is to help support broader community access to vital medical, legal, and government services.

Visiting Library Service 

Espanola Public Library offers a Visiting Library Service that delivers books and other materials (large print books, magazines, audio books, and CNIB/CELA materials) to people who are unable to visit the library on their own. We service Queensway Place, the Nursing Home, the Queensway Apartments, the Rainbow Apartments, and many people who are homebound.

 Every two weeks, a selection of materials will be delivered to you and the previous materials will be picked up.
