\n\u201cPointe Claire is in the process of creating a library space for teens,\u201d president Timothy Fain told members of Friends of the Pointe Claire Library at their annual general meeting, April 28.<\/div>\n
\n\n<\/div>\n
\nThe Quebec-incorporated charity will give some $25,000 that it has raised to the library, to cover the cost of constructing seating and purchasing computers for teens to use.<\/div>\n
\n\n<\/div>\n
\n\u201cBecause of your contribution, be it volunteering at the annual book sale, generous donations or even the simple act of attending meetings, teenage patrons will now have a space conducive to their needs,\u201d said Fain.<\/div>\n
\n\n<\/div>\n
\nHe added that The Friends will hold their wildly popular book sale fundraiser from May 19-20 this year at the Arthur S\u00e9guin chalet at 365 St. Louis in Pointe Claire, and reminded members that they are eligible to participate in the advance sale May 18. He said that The<\/div>\n
\nFriends are still looking for volunteers to help them set up book sale tables during the afternoon of May 17.<\/div>\n
\n\n<\/div>\n
\nFain reported that The Friends web site is now available at www.lesamisbibliopc.org<\/a> and that people can also pay for or renew their membership at the library front counter.<\/div>\n
\n\n<\/div>\n
\nThe Friends have also allocated funds to purchase an LCD flatscreen television that will display announcements in the library entrance.<\/div>\n
\n\n<\/div>\n
\nHowever The Suburban<\/i> has learned that municipal red tape might delay this modernization by more than a year, because of competing priorities faced by city electrical and information technology staff.<\/div>\n
\n\n<\/div>\n
\nFain concluded by highlighting the four book clubs that The Friends support and its annual donation of children\u2019s books to Action chr\u00e9tienne to put in their annual Christmas baskets for needy West Island families.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
