Bruce County Public Library Receives Donation from Barry’s Construction.

The Bruce County Public Library has gratefully received a $5,000 donation from Barry’s Construction. This generous gift will be used towards the launch of the Bruce County Public Library’s Bookmobile.

Barry’s Construction has been an active member of the Bruce County community as a family run construction business making people’s dream homes a reality across the Bruce Peninsula. They have also generously donated to many local initiatives, and the library is incredibly grateful to be added to that list.

Bruce County Public Library is moving into the active planning stages for the new Bookmobile, plotting potential routes, designs and more. By purchasing and modifying a vehicle and hiring staff to deliver scheduled visits and programs across the county, BCPL will connect digitally and socially to underserved community members.

Brooke Mclean, Director for the Bruce County Public Library, is excited to move into the planning stages of the Bookmobile. ” The Campaign Cabinet began meeting last summer and reached out to potential donors in the fall of 2021. The response we’ve received, not just from donors, but the entire public has been very enthusiastic. We appreciate the support of Barry’s Construction in making the Bookmobile a reality.”
