Laviolette wants to open
Seaforth's doors to Ontarians
By Jason Middleton
Expositor Staff
Huron East economic
development officer Ralph a
is hoping that an Ontario
Heritage Foundation initiative
will open some doors for
Seaforth.
According to Laviolette,
Doors Open is an initiative
designed to help "celebrate
heritage and culture."
"Doors Open is a particular
invitation to invite people to
see things they wouldn't
normally see," said
Laviolette, who hopes to have
the event during the 2005
August long weekend as part
of the Come Home to the
Country Festival.
There are several sites in
Seaforth that Laviolette is
considering to be part of the
tour such as town hall and its
third floor, the post office, the
CIBC hank, the Seaforth
Lawn Bowling Club, Seaforth
Legion and the Seaforth
museum.
"I'm thinking of things that

have a history," said
Laviolette.
In the application,
Laviolette said, they must
give a sampling of at least 12
sites that would be included
as part of the program.
"That leaves us from now
until we actually do it to
develop more sites," said
Laviolette.
The Doors Open began in
Ontario in 2002. This past
summer, Doors Open
attracted close to 300,000
people to events across
Ontario.
"There have been places
that have been overwhelmed
with over 100,000 visitors for
a particular day," said
Laviolette.
In Brussels, Laviolette has
said there's a potential of 24
sites that could be a part of
Doors Open.
"I believe that the interior
of Huron County is just
totally rife with sites for
which residents take for
granted, but visitors would
just gobble up in interest,"
said Laviolette.
In Seaforth and Brussels,
Laviolette said he hopes to
involve enough groups in
town so people don't have to
drive too far.
"What I'm hoping for is
that we have enough sites
within driving distance that
we don't have to send people
afar on the premise that they

cruise the library's catalogue,
view their own accounts and
and reserve books online.
While the new hours -
opening from 1 - 5 p.m. on
every Sunday except those of
holiday weekends until May
- have been in effect since
September, Seaforth librarian
Rebecca Dechert-Sage says
Sunday's popularity slowly is
increasing.
"We're getting the reaction
of surprise and excitement
from people that we're open
on Sundays since they're a
lot more convenient for
people," says Dechert-Sage.
"I even got the reaction of
'Your hours rock!' from one
caller recently," she says.
County Librarian Beth
Ross says Huron County
decided to open libraries in
the county's urban centres of
Clinton, Exeter, Goderich,
Seaforth and Wingham after
completing a strategic plan a
few years ago looking at how
to be more responsive to
local needs.
"We couldn't manage to
get the increased hours into
the budget in 2003 but we
did in 2004," she says.
Ross says Sundays are
popular days with families,
who often only have Sunday
to enjoy together each week.
As well, students working on
projects are very happy with
the Sunday opening.
However, the county
libraries will not be open on
Sunday during the summer or
on holiday weekends because
those times are traditionally
not well used by the public.
"It makes sense since
people are busy doing other
things at those times and it
helps our money go a little
further to stay closed on
those days," says Ross.
The new software that will
be installed from Nov. 18 to
25 - during which time
county libraries will be
closed - will provide
integrated purchasing,
cataloguing, collection
exchange and circulation
functions for the local library
system.
For library users, the
iBistro catalogue will serve
online information seekers
from home, work, school or
their public library through
the internet. Along with
being able to renew books,
place holds on books and
check personal accounts,
patrons will be able to
register favourite authors so
the catalogue can inform
readers of new books by that
author.
The library's website at
www.huroncounty.ca already
provides access to electronic
subscription databases of
full -text articles from over
1,800 newspapers and
magazines. Both these
databases and the new
catalogue require a library
card login, which is free to
county residents from their
library. •
Patrons are being
encouraged to stock up on
books and CDs for the week
the library will be closed for
its computer upgrade.
"Books borrowed now will
not be due until December,"
says Ross.
Huron East man
charged with assault
Huron OPP
A 24 -year-old Huron East man was charged with two
counts of assault on Oct. 25 after Huron OPP responded to
a domestic call at Heritage Estates Trailer Park on Hensall
Road.
An 18 -year-old pregnant woman told police she had been
shoved to the floor and had her hair pulled when she
attempted to leave a relationship with the man who did not
want her to leave.
She also said she had been assaulted by him during the
past few months.
The man fled the home and ran to a near by. bush area.
After a search, officers found the man and charged him.
