Welcome London Library!!
By Jay
Canada is a great place to live. I mean Canada has good public welfare
system. - although high tax is a little flaw. One great public welfare, I think,
is the public library. Even though London is a small town, London provides 16
libraries to its citizens. So, I want to introduce London
Library.
London Library is providing service to us, LLI student!,
even though you are not Canada's citizen. After I heard this news, I went to
Central Library immediately a few days ago. I asked the staff to issue a Library
Card for me. The staff just checked my passport and required my any letters of
mail. Because the staff wanted to know that I really live in London. That's all!
It was too easy. And there are no difference in citizen people. In other
words, I can use library as same as London citizens. They explained to me even
if you are not living in London, you can obtain Library Card after paying just
10$ a month.
London Library serves many kinds of services. Basically, London Library lends
books, magazines and DVDs. You can borrow 10DVDs and 40items(book or magazine
like that) at the same time. You can hold these items from 7 to 21 days.
Moreover, You can enjoy many programs including ESL program and Settlement
service for Newcomers. Because the library offers many programs you can enjoy, I
can't introduce all of them. The program that is popular in these day is Book
club. Including Centre library, Seven library offers Book club
program.
Another thing, what I was surprised with, is there are 16
library in London. Considering the size of London, I can say many number of
library scatter here and there for your convenience. Because each library
sustains good network, you can return the book that is rent from centre library
to other library you want.
London Library have been waiting your visit. You can't make excuse that
library is too far from your house or making membership is too difficult. I
really recommend you to use library. I am sure whenever you visit library, your
English skill is also improved.
