“The warmest library”: Rosemount turns 90
Monday, December 1st 2008
Connaught School Principal Irene Cameron didn’t hold anything back when she was asked to assess the importance of the Rosemount Library to its community. We caught up with her at the library’s 90th birthday party this past Saturday and like the memories that were flooding in from other friends and neighbours at the event, it was stories like hers that made the day so special.
Click on the image to see a short slide show of images captured on the day and don’t miss long-time borrower Joan Neville tell us about her first visit (in 1933!) and Champlain Park mother Leanne Scott reminiscing about what the library has meant to her and her daughter Sarah.
OPI – the picture used on the banner is Henry Golding who was visiting the branch (his mother took the picture). He and his siblings have been members of the OPL since they were two days old.

Hmmm, this is a very interesting phenom. I’ve slowly stopped enjoying Christmas. I don’t decorate the tree. I barely decorated outside this year. I will bake though.
Maybe next year I should look to do a swap. I’ll bake for some one who doesn’t like to, but likes to decorate …
