A lot has changed this we released our last episode! Hosts Bryce and Caroline – recording from separate locations – are joined (remotely) by Edmonton Public Library CEO Pilar Martinez to talk about everything that has been happening in the last few weeks. They ask Pilar about the decision to close library branches, how EPL is working with the City to support Edmontonians, and what qualities are needed to lead in challenging times. (Plus we find out what song all three people sing when they wash their hands!)
Bring the Library to you! While our branches are temporarily closed, our online resources are always available. Whether you want to learn a new language, read an eBook or eAudiobook, stream an award-winning movie or enjoy a storytime with your little one, there's a world of possibilities instantly available at your fingertips.
