BRUCE COUNTY – The Bruce County Public Library has gratefully received a $10,000 donation from the Community Foundations Fund of The Society of United Professionals, Bruce Local. This generous gift will be used to help launch the library’s bookmobile.
Library Services Director Brooke McLean said she is deeply appreciative of all the support provided to the library.
“We have received overwhelming support from the communities we serve. We thank The Society of United Professionals for seeing the bookmobile’s potential to make a difference to underserved communities in Bruce County,” she said.
The bookmobile project’s goal is to bring books, technology, and library services to where the people are. The Bruce County Public Library hopes to launch the bookmobile later this year.
Library board chair Luke Charbonneau expressed his gratitude.
“The Bruce County Public Library board is very grateful for this donation. Our communities are excited for a new bookmobile service, and this contribution will help make it a reality,” he said.
The Society of United Professionals represents more than 8,500 professionals in Ontario, including engineers, scientists, supervisors, and lawyers. The union works to ensure the best rewards, career opportunities, and working conditions for the members they represent while upholding their professional responsibilities to their members’ employers, customers, clients, and the people of Ontario.
