Want to save some money?
Pay a visit to your Library!

When the economy is thriving, most of us don’t think twice about buying the latest bestseller, the newest video game or purchasing a pay-per-view movie, but what about when times are tight? Just because you’re watching your wallet, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a good book or a movie – you can borrow them from your Library for Free! 

The Pickering Public Library has a large selection of the latest bestselling novels, recently released blockbuster movies and popular video games for the Playstation 2 and 3, Wii and xBox 360. Library cardholders can borrow all of these items, then return them when they’re done…and not pay a cent!  Did you know that if you borrow just 5 books and 5 DVDs from the Library each month instead of buying them, you could save almost $3000?

You can also save some money on costly home internet fees. The Library has Free internet access for all Library cardholders. So, instead of paying a monthly fee for a home internet connection that you might use for only a few minutes a day, come in and use the Library internet instead. Wireless internet access is also available at all Pickering Public Library Branches.

So the next time you’re looking for ideas on how to save some money, look no further than your local Library!

Visit your local Pickering Library Branch, or call the Library at 905-831-6265. Staff will be happy to help you.
