Grande Bibliothèque reaches 20
Le Devoir marks the 20th anniversary of the Grande Bibliothèque with a dossier of items. In particular, they look at how a social worker at the library manages the presence of homeless people who need a peaceful place to hang out.

FYI « intervenant psychosocial » does not necessarily mean « social worker », a reserved professional title. It is a general term, similar to « therapist » or « life coach » etc.
A social worker can call themselves an intervenant psychosocial, but an IP can’t call themselves a SW unless they are members of the Ordre (OTSTCFQ)
And in this case, the person is not a social worker, I checked.

It’s only therapy if it comes from the Ordre, otherwise it’s just sparkling chit-chat.
