Woman Receiving Books From Visiting Library Service, 1973

Subject

Visiting Library patron

Description

Four colour photographs of a woman receiving books from staff member Lynne Skulj as part of Welland Public Library's Visiting Library service, c. 1973.

Our Visiting Library services outreach program began in 1973. Staff would deposit and exchange books at local senior's homes, personal homes, and extended care at the hospital. This was a great way for patrons to access the library and engage in literary conversations. The Visiting Library service currently runs to this day with the exchange of books and audio-visual material.
