The Library offers 24/7 online access to digital resources in addition to our Outreach Delivery Service. Outreach provides materials to people who cannot visit the library and serves the Queensway Residence, the Rainbow Apartments and Espanola residents still living at home. On a pre-determined schedule, a selection of materials is delivered to the door, and the previous material is picked up. The Library offers a broad selection of fiction and non-fiction – many in large print, as well as books in pre-loaded digital, CNIB daisy disk and CD formats.
