    Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have exploded over the last few years. They can supercharge your web searches and help you find the most relevant information. They can generate images, a personalized song, summarize long text, describe the content of videos, and more. Chris Taylor from the Ottawa PC Users' Group will show you how easily it can be done and how to detect dreaded "AI hallucinations". And you can do it all for free!  

    Registration is limited. Please pre-register online. ​

    le jeudi 10 avril 2025 à 18 h 15

    Feelings about death are as diverse as people are. And while we recognize that what someone thinks or feels about dying, death, grief or loss isn’t necessarily determined by their gender identity or sexual orientation, we also know how important it is to be able to talk about these issues and feelings in a space that feels safe and with people who share similar life experiences.

    North Gloucester Branch, 2036 Ogilvie Rd.,  

    Drop-ins welcome, but registration preferred.

    Ottawa Public Library is partnering with the Home Hospice Association to offer death cafés at various locations and with various themes. Check out the OPL website for other cafés.
