To all the incredible warrior women and men navigating serious illnesses, both physical and mental, as well as those dealing with everything in between, we want you to know that you’re not alone. Western Downs Libraries can support you on your recovery journey by offering resources, companionship, and understanding of the challenges you face. Our digital services, Hoopla and Borrowbox, are here to provide comfort and entertainment as you navigate this path.
On a personal note, a member of my family was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and for her recovery after surgery, I made sure she was set up with a foam tablet holder that had all the Western Downs Library Apps downloaded (Hoopla, Borrow Box). This ensured that with the limited movement she had for the 4 weeks after surgery, being able to access a book or movie was still a joy and would cause limited discomfort.
In today’s fast-paced world, taking time to unwind and focus on your well-being is more important than ever. At Western Downs Libraries, we’re here to help you do just that, right from the comfort of your home, our digital resources offer a wealth of options to help you relax, recharge, and get well.
