Standing in the library’s soon-to-be refurbished children’s section, Gibsons and District Library Foundation trustees present a cheque for facility enhancements to children’s librarian Danielle Arsenault.

In June, a donation for $35,000 helped boost the library’s reconfiguration project. The year-end donation of $5,000 for the Children’s Library brought the Foundation’s total support in 2016 to $40,000. Total funds from all sources raised for the Children’s Library project exceeded $17,500.
