Did you know that you can borrow e-books through the Gravenhurst Public Library at no cost? Click the link for Overdrive on our website www.gravenhurst.ca/library.  On January 9th we held a workshop at the library about Overdrive.  The workshop was a great success with a packed house, so a second workshop is being offered on Monday January 23, at 2pm.  Come in to learn all about how to navigate Overdrive and download e-books and  e-audio books.  For those of you who will not be able to attend the workshop on January 23 and  have questions about how to borrow e-books or e-audio books through Overdrive, please give us a call and set up an appointment with Megan who will be pleased to answer your questions, 705-687-3382.

New research finds 62 per cent of Canadian parents don’t feel they have as much time as they would like to spend helping their child learn.  We have the perfect solution, to spend fun and educational time with your children or grandchildren.  Come join us when Family Literacy Day comes to life at Gravenhurst Public School on Sat.

Daniel Flear who touts himself as ‘The Anxiety Whisperer’ will be presenting a workshop on Emotional Healing at the Gravenhurst Public Library on Saturday January 28th at 12 noon.  Daniel explains that “as the ‘Anxiety Whisperer’, I have worked successfully with thousands of people to eliminate their emotional roadblocks so that they can live their most powerful lives.  The process I use puts the ‘past in the past’ and eliminates ‘mind chatter’ allowing them to operate from the present and plan for the future.  I can disconnect emotions from past events.  This means that when you think about a past event that currently upsets you, after one short appointment, the emotions is removed.”  If you would like to know how energy works to improve your all round heath, please join us.  Demonstrations and Treatments throughout the workshop. Tickets are available at the Gravenhurst Public Library for $30.00 per person.
