The New Normal: Things to Do While at Home
In addition to taking full advantage of the library’s online databases and download sites (ebooks, digital magazines, online courses and digital music services), please take a look at our Children’s Programs and Adult Programs pages for additional suggestions, such as watching storytime videos presented by our staff. In cooperation with the County’s recreation staff, we’ve also assembled additional resources on page titled “New Normal“.
Accessing the Library’s Online Databases
Most library databases require a library membership number for logging in. If you do not currently have a library membership, we will issue you one via email. Submit your request for a membership number by completing the quick form below and include your full name and home mailing address. You will be provided with a number by email and a physical card will be mailed to you when our branches reopen.
NEW! In addition to the Library’s subscription to RBDigital e-magazine service, trial access to PressReader digital newspapers and magazines is now available while we navigate today’s challenges. Discover thousands of titles, including the Globe & Mail, Toronto Star, Hamilton Spectator, Simcoe Reformer and Canadian Living! Access requires a library card number as well as a library PIN. If you require either, use the online email request form above to message us and we’ll get you set up right away! If you like PressReader even more than RBDigital magazines, let us know that too! | How to use in on an app | How to use it on a PC
