As we take our patrons' privacy very seriously, we want to inform you of a brief minor security breach incident that occurred on April 19th to our library operating system, SITKA. The leaked data was limited to email addresses or phone numbers of people who received automated messages such as such as holds notifications from SITKA from March 27th to April 19th. No individual library information, other identifying information, contents or subject lines of emails, or any information about people's checkouts, holds or fines were leaked. The BC Libraries Co-op that operates SITKA believes the main harm that can come from the leaking of this information is a potential increase in spam, phishing or spear phishing attacks.We have not had any reports of any issues yet. Please contact our Library Director Wendy Cinnamon if you have any concerns or if you have experienced any problematic communication.
Doctor of Natural Medicine and wellness authority Dr. Josh Axe delivers a groundbreaking, indispensable guide for understanding, diagnosing, and treating one of the most discussed yet little-understood health conditions: leaky gut syndrome. Leaky gut syndrome is the root cause of a litany of ailments, including: chronic inflammation, allergies, autoimmune diseases, hypothyroidism, adrenal fatigue, diabetes, and even arthritis. Dr. Josh Axe explains that it's essential to get a little "dirty" in our daily lives in order to support our gut bacteria and prevent leaky gut syndrome. He offers simple ways to get these needed microbes, from incorporating local honey and bee pollen into your diet to forgoing hand sanitizers, and even ingesting a little probotic-rich soil. Dr. Axe identifies the five main gut types and offers customizable plans - including diet, supplement, and lifestyle recommendations - to dramatically improve gut health in just 30 days.
