Mercer Shaw Library has expanded to offer a  
​Remote Workspace and Meeting Room.
Volunteers have renovated the room next door to create a place where patrons can work remotely, attend meetings, do research, shop online, access Telehealth etc., using your devices or ours. This is supported by our high-speed Wi-Fi, technical assistance, digital classes and semi-private work stations.  Click here to see the renovation process.
