Book Spotlight - November 2020

Continue to watch this space for promotions highlighting one of the books recently added to the PLA Library collection, as well as old favourites we think may be of interest to our PLA Library users.

This text is a companion volume to Child Support Guidelines in Canada, 2020 (Payne and Payne) that is also in the PLA Library collection. Both titles are available for borrowing by current PLA Members in good standing.
