Hear, hear! This...👇 The social determinants of misinformation bmj.com/content/389/bm… via @Sander_vdLinden et al "We need to understand more about how susceptibility to misinformation is socially patterned so that it doesn’t deepen health inequalities."
Canada is everything.
#ThankYou @BurlOnLibrary Central Branch for the #wonderful tour and information session today! We loved learning about the fabulous resources the #library offers #information #socialservices #community #dementia #makerspace
It was #wonderful exploring the #Digital #archives and #SocialMedia with everyone today as part of @GilbreaCentre and @BurlOnLibrary "Tech Club for people living with #dementia : a co-designed initiative"! Next week is the final session 🥲
Today is #WorldRefugeeDay, a day to celebrate the strength and courage of refugees & highlight the need for resources to support those forced to flee their home country to escape conflict/persecution. Wesley proudly supports refugees in our community. @Refugees @WHO @UNHCRCanada
So much more to the library than books! If you haven’t yet, check out the Maker’s Space: laser printing, embroidery, sewing, vinyl printer for stickers or window clings, and I even got an engraved business card holder! Thanks to @JoeAppsSupport for hosting tonight’s @burlingtoncofc BusinessAfter 5 at our very own @BurlOnLibrary Great to see my colleagues Councillors Paul Sharman and Angelo Bentivegna there also.
Canadian writer Alice Munro, whose short stories have been beloved for the past six decades, has died at 92. ' Her earthy humour and ability to extend sympathy to every character made her a household name, and made her birthplace of Wingham, Ontario, a place of literary pilgrimage. She won the Nobel Prize in 2013, the only Canadian to ever win for literature, and the Giller Prize twice, then disqualified herself from the running in 2009 to make way for younger writers. Ms. Munro leaves her daughters Sheila, Jenny and Andrea. More here: tgam.ca/4aeMyiU
