“It is my sincerest pleasure to welcome you to Vaughan Public Libraries’ newest addition – the Civic Centre Resource Library,” says Devender Sandhu, Chair, Vaughan Public Libraries Board. “This technologically- advanced library provides not only a welcoming space for all Vaughan residents, it inspires creativity and innovation. With the new CREATE IT! space, people of all ages and experience can come together to perform and record music in the recording studio, create videos in the Green Room, and learn the latest technology such as the virtual reality world of the Oculus Rift and designing in 3D using Tinkercad. Like all VPL branches, we want to enrich, inspire and transform your life and I truly believe the Civic Centre Resource Library will do that.”
