Thankyou Hilda Mason

Hilda Mason the chief librarian at the Tillsonburg Library in the 1960's gave me my first chance at pursuing a career as a teacher librarian. She let me help with Saturday morning story hours which led to a part time (after school)job in the Children's section housed in the basement of the. Library.

Foldens little library

Growing up on the corner of Foldens, there was a township yard with a little library next door. While it wasn't open every day or waking hour, it was a great resource for all my school projects. There were encyclopedias, national geographics amongst other books and magazinesLibrarians, Mrs DeWitt and Audrey Shelton were very helpful with assisting with local history and getting the books I liked to read for pleasure.Unfortunately time came for it to close. You never really know what you are missing until it is gone

The library is a vital part of our community. I have brought my grandchildren for 8 years and always come away with several choices. The Lego was always a hit. More recently myself and friends have participated in the cooking class and hope they continue. I do appreciate the organizing of all the different projects offered. Thank you, Jane.
