Celebrate your Library this October

Wyoming, ON – Lambton County Library is once again planning a variety of events to celebrate Ontario Public Library week from October 20-26, 2025.

“With the theme of “I Love My Library”, we have several events planned so that patrons can show us their love of libraries,” said Darlene Coke, Manager, Library Services. “This is the perfect time to visit your local library to see everything we offer – from books to projectors, and from pickleball paddles to telescopes we have so much to offer to help learn, play and grow at all ages.”

Ontario Public Library Week Highlights:
• Patrons are invited to share why they love their library by submitting testimonial cards in-library, on social media, or via email.
• Magnetic “I Love Lambton County Library” bookmarks will be available on a first come first serve basis at all Lambton County library locations.
