  • LIB-002-2019 (First Quarter Report 2019)
    REPORT TO COUNCIL REPORT NUMBER: LIB-002-2019 DEPARTMENT: Clearview Public Library Board MEETING DATE: May 13, 2019 SUBJECT: First Quarter Report 2019 RECOMMENDATION: Be It Resolved, that Council of the Township of Clearview hereby: 1) Receives the Clearview Public Library Board First Quarter Report 2019. BACKGROUND: This report summarizes the activities of the Clearview Public Library in the first quarter of 2019. COMMENTS AND ANALYSIS: Building Project A revised schedule for the project has been distributed, and Bondfield is currently meeting the schedule targets. Programs Program attendance exceeded 2000 in each of these three months. Use of in- library computers, as well as wireless access through patron-owned devices, continue to be the Library’s most used program service. Pre-school programs provided through area schools are also very popular, with February being the busiest month in this period with 429 participants. Clearview Public Library’s Adult Colouring program, which provides participants an opportunity to socialize as well as to achieve mindfulness and reduce anxiety, has been running out of the Stayner Branch and area churches for a number of years. The program has developed a loyal following, but the participants have requested Page 1 of 5 that the program be moved permanently to the library for ease of access to the collection and services and so that there is no confusion about where the program will be held each week. Library staff have thanked the local churches who have generously partnered with us on this program for supporting it over the years. March Break programs included two VanGo programs provided by the MacLaren Art Gallery, as well as a wide variety of in-library programs for all ages geared to the STEM curriculum.

Enjoy the tour! STARTING POINT—AMARANTH MUNICIPAL OFFICES Turn right, toward County Road 10 (10 Sideroad) and turn left towards the Village of Laurel. Stop #1 Village of Laurel Once known as the village of churches, Laurel had four con- gregations and three church buildings, and a population of about 80 souls. The last church closed this year: the United Church (north of the intersection) was built in 1888 as the Wesleyan Methodist Church. Bell’s Presbyterian Church still stands south of Grand River Furniture, and south of that was the Anglican Church, bought by the township in 1872 for a township hall, and later owned by the Laurel Women’s Institute. Grand River Furniture occupies the site of the for- mer General Store and Post Office. Several of the houses in the village were built by the Hughes brothers, cousins of Jack Hughes, founder of the Hughes Corn Flower company. The village was given its name by Anne Spence, mother of teacher, storekeeper and first postmaster David Spence, Cheese Factory, Laurel, circa 1905 supposedly to commemorate the laurel bush that grew in the yard of her old home in County Armagh, Ireland. When pioneer John Brown arrived at Laurel in 1847 to claim his land grant, he took one look at it, and sold it: most of his land was underwater, thanks to a huge beaver dam that flooded everything east of the Fifth Line.
