Description
October 31, 2019
It's open six days a week and offers a variety of services to the public, all free.
The Peterborough Public Library on Alymer Street underwent a multi-million dollar transformation a few years ago.
As Dan Nyznik reports, the facility is playing an important role in the community since re-opening in early 2018.
