Help us put books on our shelves!
Let's Talk Books - Library Wishlist |
Our Library is asking our community  to help us put books on our shelves.
We are thrilled to have partnered with Let's Talk Books Cobourg to create an online Wishlist of Books for our collections.
For every purchase you make from the Wishlist, you will receive a 15% discount, and if you spend $25 or more, you can get a tax receipt from the Library.
This is a great partnership, and encourages our community to support local business while also supporting the Cobourg Library.
Looking for a tax receipt?
