[fvc-wat-disc] Region of Waterloo library, WPL

[Jennifer Ross]

Hi Paul.  I have asked Kelly for logo, and I have put the September 8 event
up on the government website.  I have not put up the others on the chance
that we have a lovely poster to link to, and because I'm not entirely sure
how to update information already put up.  However, that week of September
will be VERY busy for folk as it always is, so having it on people's radar
now is a good thing, I thought.
