Vancouver Island Regional Library braces for postal strike 

The Canada Post strike could impact more services than people know, and Vancouver Island Regional Library (VIRL) says they’re no exception to the rule.  

According to a news release, VIRL utilizes several services through Canada Post and library users could experience potential delays or interruptions that rely on postal delivery.  

Services including books by mail, rural branches who receive their material by mail, magazine subscriptions, interlibrary loans, BC One card materials, and receipts could be impacted.  

VIRL says they’ll provide updates on service interruptions as they become available and thanks everyone for their patience.
