So you think you know it all? Douglas College is offering to prove it while raising money for a library in Uganda.
Douglas College Library, in partnership with the Douglas College Foundation, is hoping to raise $6,000 for the Busolwe Public Library in Uganda.
The money will be used to equip the Busolwe Library with money for staff, books and solar power so the villagers can read and study in the evenings, access a computer and hold community meetings.
Libraries Across Borders, the philanthropic arm of the BC Library Association, has agreed to match the first $3,000 raised at the Douglas College Library quiz night next month.
Rhian Piprell, director of Coquitlam Public Library, has compiled questions and prizes for all skill levels.
The library quiz night is set for Thursday, Feb. 9 from 7 to 10 p.m. at Douglas College's David Lam campus in Coquitlam. Teams will compete against one another for bragging rights and small prizes.
The entry fee is $20 per person, with teams consisting of four people. Light snacks and a cash bar will be available.
To register your team, contact Shelley Waldie by Feb. 1 at 604-527-5180 or [email protected].
