Books, resources, and programs of interest for seniors!

The library offers free and accessible resources, events, and entertainment for seniors, including great reads in a variety of formats, opportunities to connect with other community members, and lifelong learning. Whether you're looking for help using a new device, meeting people with similar interests, or finding your new favourite book, the library has you covered!

Accessible Collections

Large print books, including popular reading, classics and non-fiction, can be found at all of our library branches. Any library patron may check out large print titles. If you are unable to get to the Library because of a physical disability, you can request Home Library Service. The Home Library Service librarian can choose a selection of large print or regular print books and audiovisual materials based on your interests or you can request specific titles. Talking Books provide more audiobook options for those with print disabilities. Find out more about Accessible Services at NVDPL.
