Sally Hart on CBC, Unreserved

My former neighbour, Sally Hart, has told the story on CBC radio of her Penelakut heritage, a Penelakut father and a grandmother who grew up on the Thetis side of The Cut. It’s a Hart-warming story and one that you’ll want to share with friends and neigbhours. Here’s the link:

New to Thetis? Missing the Library?

In addition to our wonderful local community library that will be once again available to us when Forbes Hall construction is completed, the Vancouver Island Regional Library offers a great, free, Books By Mail service to remote readers.  

Thetis Island counts as a remote community.  The green book bag service means you can order any number of books in any genre, adult or child, regular or large print format, and they arrive at your post box. You read them at your leisure, then you pop them back in the bag and drop the bag into the mail box.  No late fees, no postage fees, no hassle.  

I found this service especially great in the past for children’s books because the Books by Mail librarians get to know your child’s reading interests and will choose for you if you like.  (Grand kids coming?  Have a stack of books ready to read while they are here, then mail them back when they leave.). 

Vancouver Island Regional Library is funded through regional taxation, so since you are paying for it, take advantage of it.  

Sign up on their website: https://virl.bc.ca/branches/books-by-mail/
