Paper Roads is a grassroots, traveling social justice library that delivers books for loan to low-income, racialized, and Indigenous communities in the regions known as Oakville, Burlington, Milton, Hamilton, Guelph, and the Tri-Cities. Our books are delivered (and retrieved) by volunteers from the community. Delivery and pick up times are coordinated by our founder. Delivery volunteers will be provided with library books, although an option to deliver donated books is also available. The time frame between book delivery and pick up is one to two months. We do contactless deliveries when possible and, when not possible, we ask all community members to wear masks.
