School libraries are often the heart and school of a school community. Author Sidney Sheldon once said, "Libraries store the energy that fuels the imagination. They open up windows to the world and inspire us to explore and achieve, and contribute to improving our quality of life.” In this episode, we are connecting with three of our outstanding SD61 school librarians to learn more about what trying to maintain services and support students during a global pandemic has looked like at elementary, middle, and secondary schools.  

Metthea Maddern (Margaret Jenkins Elementary), Katherine O'Connor (Central Middle), and Geoff Orme (Esquimalt High) share how their roles have been impacted this year and what measures they have taken to maintain the library services within their school communities as safely as possible.
