We are delighted to announce our volunteer of the month for May 2023: Gaelle Paquet! Here’s a message from her:
“On my first day volunteering, I was surprised to find that a group of young children could make me so nervous. Though, it only took me a few minutes to realize how wonderful and curious they were. Throughout my volunteering, I have come to think that reading is an integral part of life, full of learning, and fun. So, I believe it is extremely important for kids to develop an interest in reading early on. By exposing them to books in a fun, informal way, the kids I work with have really developed a strong and long-lasting relationship with reading. This is why I think projects like minibiblioPLUS are so necessary.
Besides bringing me lots of fun time reading and playing with kids, my volunteering here has given me a new outlook on the link between education and entertainment. I truly value my work here and I think that seeing the kids’ faces light up each time they see me and the books is one of the most priceless feelings ever.”
It is Canadian Children’s Book Week, so here is a list of book suggestions prepared by our Librarian Marco.

👏🤩 Congratulations to our newest volunteer of the month for April, Anastasia, who records storytime videos for our partners. Here’s what she had to say about her experience volunteering :
“I greatly enjoy volunteering at minibiblioPLUS for many reasons. First, it makes me feel accomplished, as I help children from my community. Additionally, it has been a hobby of mine for over a year and is something I love doing every week. Ultimately this experience has helped me improve my communication skills and my shy behavior. Thank you very much minibiblioPLUS!”
