Summer Reading Club Award presented to Rossland librarian
Beverley Rintoul of Rossland Public Library is the winner of the first ever BC SRC Community Story Award! Beverley’s story of a little boy who throughly enjoyed his Summer Reading Club experience perfectly captures not only the deep impact of the SRC program, but also the commitment and care that library workers bring to their communities.
Beverley will attend this year’s BCLA Conference as a guest of RBC (Royal Bank of Canada). Beverley will be formally presented with the SRC Community Story Award at BCLA’s AGM on May 2, 2014.
The BCLA, in partnership with RBC, introduced the SRC Community Story Award at the 2013 BCLA Conference. Each year, the BC Summer Reading Club will present this award to an individual whose story best demonstrates the impact of the SRC within their community.
