Radon detectors (2)

** NEW ** 2 radon detectors are now available to borrow from the library on a 3-week loan. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers and is found across Ontario. This gas is naturally occurring and dissipates in an open-air environment. 

Water Rangers test kits (4) - Love and protect your lake!

Water Rangers water testing kits come with the tools you need to sample and test temperature, pH, and clarity. Collect water quality data and submit to Water Rangers to help create a baseline for water quality that will allow early detection of changes. Learn more on the Water Rangers site: https://waterrangers.com/

If you are interested in volunteering to teach community members how to use the equipment in these kits, please let us know. 

New e-resource - hoopla digital

https://www.hoopladigital.com/

With hoopla you can borrow and enjoy audiobooks, eBooks, comics, movies, TV, magazines, or music. hoopla syncs across all your devices, so you can stream titles immediately (no wait-time). Most titles can also be downloaded to your phone or tablet. hoopla offers more content, in more places, than any other digital library platform and it's all FREE! There is a limit of 6 loans per patron to begin and we will re-evaluate the need to grow this resource next year.
