The Auxiliary of the Montreal General Hospital held the "Official Launch" of their Book Nook in the Cedar Lobby last Thursday morning, March 7.

The Book Nook shop was first opened in November 2011 and has proven to be a very successful fundraising venture. Hospital patients and their family members, as well as MUHC staff, also appreciate having such a wide variety of reading material available at affordable prices.

Thank you to the many volunteers who helped build and who donate their time to the Book Nook, and many thanks to everyone who donates and purchases books. All money goes toward patient care initiatives.
