Neutrality[edit]

I feel this article is complementing the Mississauga Library System a little bit too much, especially where it says:

The Library offers many services and programs such as story times, March Break activities and more for children and families. Resources range from advice to parents on choosing books to web sites for kids - both for fun and for school projects.

Children's Dial-A-Story: listen to a new preschool story each week in the comfort of your own home. Call as often as you want, any time of the day. To listen to a story call 905-615-3500 and choose option #4.

It would be helpful if sources other than the official website (which is obviously biased on its favour) were used. Perhaps the mentioning of criticism from a third-part and the avoiding of ambiguos or weasel words such as fun and comfort would be helpful as well. Also, is it relevant for wikipedians worldwide to know the telephone number and option menu from their Dial-A-Story feature?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bernalj90 (talk • contribs) 18:29, 6 August 2006 .

Why not just edit the offending material out? Public libraries are scarcely hotbeds of controversy -Dhodges 02:09, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As of today, the article is sufficiently neutral. PK T(alk) 12:39, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge from Courtneypark Library[edit]

I propose merging the content from Courtneypark Library, as the branches section of this article is currently just a list, and the source article is rather short and not likely notable on its own. Mind matrix 15:54, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - thanks for your comment. I do believe this article is sufficiently neutral and cited by many sources such as Region of Peel, BILD, and other secondary sources. I would suggest leaving it as it is. It is a library after all, it's not really offending anyone. Despite its stub status, I don't think it's lacking in any way. As time permits, I also intend to expand more on Canadian libraries articles, especially in Peel region. Once again, appreciate your suggestion. Kazuha1029 (talk) 16:15, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
