Welcome to the Nose Hill Library blog!

We are excited to be able to share the latest news from our branch with you....

This past week, Nose Hill library staff had the opportunity to participate in a Calgary Reads Together Event at Cambrian Heights elementary school. Calgary Public Library brought a pile of books for an afternoon of reading with corporate and community volunteers. The volunteers sat on mats on the gym floor with eager grade one students and had tons of fun reading and discussing various books. There was lots of cheering when the kids were informed that we had brought them each their very own library card!

The afternoon ended with a fun reading by CBC's Angela Knight of The Interrupting Chicken written by David Ezra Stein.

It was great to be out in the community, seeing and sharing a passion for books with others. Thanks to our partners, Calgary Reads and Cambrian Heights, at this very successful event! We are looking forward to seeing some of the grade ones in our library soon! Come visit with your new library card!
