Public Library Week 2018

From October 20 to 27, celebrate the 20th year of Quebec Public Library Week!
This year, the organizers have chosen to celebrate library employees.

To celebrate, we have planned a wealth of activities for you!

L'univers de Nina Berberova

Every day brings news about some “miracle food” that we should be gulping down. Then there are worries: food additives, gluten, pesticide residues, GMOs, antibiotics, meat consumption. Dr. Joe Schwarcz will help guide us through this nutritional maze.
