    “Like the Fair, public libraries are a favourite place for families to visit, and an essential part of summer in BC,” says Public Library InterLINK Executive Director Michael Burris. “Library Day at the Fair at the PNE provides an opportunity to highlight some of the fun activities that families can expect when they visit their local library; from storytime to makerspaces, there is something for all ages.”
     
    Surrey Libraries will participate alongside InterLINK member libraries in onsite activities from 11:00am through 9:00pm on Wed. August 23. Fair attendees can stopby the library zone near Toon City and Gate 4 for lively activities, or simply, to take a break in the relaxation zone.
