Love your library

February is Love Your Library Month, so visit your nearest library location to show your love.

Don’t judge a book by its cover. With the “Blind Date with a Book” program, you can borrow a book without knowing the title. When you’ve finished reading it, you can share your review using the “Rate Your Date” feedback card. You can also express your love for your library by adding a “Dear Library” postcard to the community boards to share why your library is special to you.

While visiting, check out one of the Valentine’s Day drop-in programs. From crafts and speed friending, to anti-Valentine’s parties, there’s something for everyone.

Adopt a pet

Looking for a new loved one? Let Animal Services introduce you to your new best friend! There are many cats, small pets and dogs at the Animal Services Shelter, waiting to be taken home. Learn more about adopting a pet.

There’s so much to see and do this February 14. Try something different and enjoy your Valentine’s Day, Mississauga!
