Reading the Truth for Reconciliation

Read "Genocidal Love" by Bevann Fox during the month of September, and then join us for an open dialogue ahead of Orange Shirt Day. Sherry Saevil, Indigenous Education Advisor for Halton Catholic District School Board, is our guest facilitator for the discussion.

A limited number of copies of Genocidal Love will be loaned to the first 25 BPL members who request the book when they register to attend the program. Please make sure you register using your library card number. If you have your own book (or a copy from another library system), you are also welcome to attend.

Bevann Fox is a member of Pasqua Nation, originally from Piapot Nation (Treaty 4 Territory). An award-winning author and TV host/producer, she received her Bachelor of Arts in Arts and Culture in 2012 and in 2018 her Master in Business Administration, Leadership from the University of Regina. She received an Indigenous Voices Award for "Genocidal Love," which was also honoured with two Saskatchewan Book Awards.

Burlington Public Library

Explore – Discover – Learn! That’s what Burlington Public Library is all about.

The Library belongs to everyone in the community and is free to join if you live, work, or go to school in Burlington.

There are seven library branches citywide: six full-service branches (Aldershot, Alton, Brant Hills, Central, New Appleby, Tansley Woods) and a small lending collection in the rural hamlet of Kilbride. Library service began in Burlington in January 1872.

Central branch is the largest location and houses historical and special collections, a community makerspace, and a computer lab.

We look forward to welcoming you to Burlington Public Library during Culture Days 2022.
