Home Library Service

HOME LIBRARY SERVICE

If you are unable to get to the library because of a physical disability and you live in the District of North Vancouver, 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. Deliveries are scheduled for Wednesday or Thursday afternoons.

NVDPL also schedules monthly Library Afternoons on Wednesdays and Thursdays to bring books to homebound residents at each of the following complexes:

   > Capilano Lions House (in conjunction with the Capilano Community Services Seniors’ Hub)

   > Cedarview Lodge and Cedar Garden

   > Churchill House

   > Kiwanis Care Centre

   > Lions Manor in Deep Cove

   > Lynn Valley Care Centre

   > Sunrise Lynn Valley

   > Woodcroft

   > Zajac Norgate House

A deposit collection of Large Print books is delivered to Evergreen House at Lions Gate Hospital each month and the Evergreen House library volunteers take a tailored selection around to the residents each week.

To find out more about our Home Library Service, please call the Home Service Librarian, Heather Goodwin, at 604-990-5800 Local 8124 or email: heatherg@nvdpl.ca

If you are unable to read print because of a visual, perceptual or physical disability, you can register for the Talking Books Service and have talking books delivered. For more information, please go to our Talking Books page.
