Let’s Celebrate a Summer of Reading Success!

We’re wrapping up this year’s TD Summer Reading Club with a special celebration to honour all our amazing readers! Join us for an exciting Fire and Ice show presented by Mad Science, enjoy face painting, tasty treats and strike a pose in front of our festive photo backdrop. As a special memento of your summer reading success, you’ll receive a Polaroid photo to take home. 

Need a break from the noise? Step into our Quiet Corner, where kids can enjoy calming, hands-on activities and experiments in a peaceful setting.

The Isabel Turner Branch will be temporarily closed starting Fall 2024 for renovations. During this time, we’ll be temporarily moving to the Cataraqui Centre.  Get updates here.

KFPL Adult Summer Reading Club

Join the Adult Summer Reading Challenge!

The Summer Reading Challenge is back... and this year we've added a twist! This sumer, we're inviting you to join us on Goodreads for weekly reflection, discussion, and engagement with fellow SRC-ers in response to a weekly theme. We know it's been a strange, often isolating year, and we want to keep the challenge simple so we can all focus on meaningful enagement, interaction, and sharing with one another! (Teens, we have an SRC for you too!)
