No “swiping right” this Valentine’s Day: go to Leddy Library to be set up on a mystery date with a book!
The Leddy team has carefully selected and wrapped eligible books that are waiting patiently for their special readers. The identity of the book won’t be revealed until the book has been checked out and unwrapped.

Take a chance… maybe you’ll meet your next favourite book.
