🚨 Important Update: Interlibrary Loan (ILLO) Service Suspended

Due to the ongoing Canada Post strike, Interlibrary Loan (ILLO) service is temporarily unavailable. This means we are unable to fill requests at this time. 

Service will resume as soon as the strike ends and deliveries are reinstated. We appreciate your patience and understanding. 

If you have questions, please contact us at 905-642-7323 or info@wsplibrary.ca. 

The ILLO request form is currently disabled until service resumes.
