Introducing Pop Up Library

by Joyce Quach | Jun 27, 2021

We are very excited to announce our new Pop Up Library outreach vehicle, affectionately known as POP! The main goal of our new vehicle is to be out in the community and doing Pop Up Libraries throughout the City of Coquitlam starting this summer. And this is why we call it POP!

We will be featuring technological toys such as Ozobots, Spheros, WonderBooks, telescopes and binoculars, all of which are available to borrow from the Library. We’ll bring along all our other new gadgets that we have like Makey Makeys and the Tangiplays. We will also demonstrate the many online resources that users of the Library can access with their library card. Learn more about our tech toys.

We will also be using POP for our home delivery customers. The home delivery service delivers library material to Coquitlam residents (60+) who are temporarily or permanently homebound in private homes, residences and care homes. Registration is required. Learn more about home delivery.  

If you would like POP to visit your program or community event, please email Ann at ajohannes@coqlibrary.ca with details about where and when and we will try to make it happen.

We are grateful for Trans Mountain Corporation’s support of the Pop Up Library.

Look for POP at parks, community centres and various locations throughout Coquitlam. We plan to be POPping up everywhere!
