Paisley Legion donates to newly-accessible Paisley Library

The Bruce County Public Library received a generous donation of $2,000 from the Paisley Legion which will enrich the Paisley branch’s offerings through the purchase of program supplies, children’s activities, and local Indigenous artwork.

“We are incredibly grateful to the Legion for this donation,” said library director Brooke McLean. “These funds will help us enhance our programs and services, but also allows us to celebrate Indigenous culture with the community.”

The Paisley branch was re-located to the Paisley Community Centre in June, 2024, and is the newest accessible library branch. The new location ensures all community members can enjoy its services and programming.

This donation will be key in strengthening community connections and creating a welcoming environment for all community members.

The Bruce County Public Library is committed to its role as a trusted community connector, digital community facilitator and community sharing place. Consisting of 17 branches and a Bookmobile, the library provides access to information, resources, and programs throughout Bruce County. Visit the BCPL website to learn about donation options.
