Wonderful Trip to the Toronto Reference Library
Two week ago, the students from LINC 4-5 took a great visit to the Toronto Reference Library at downtown.
TRL is a nice place for readers to find and read different kinds of books there, because there are hundreds and thousands books stored in this 5-storey building and you definitely can find one that you are interest in. When you walk in this building, you will find the whole hall is so shining and the reading areas are designed so comfortable. Every reader can easily get a seat there and fully enjoy the time when reading a book beside the huge windows. In addition, the service that the TRL offers is always so efficient and convenient, it just took me several minutes to get the library card to be applied.
With the nice experience and deep impression that I have, I am sure you will see me sometimes in one of the Toronto Public Library with a book in my hands. Knowledge makes the wealth!
