2007 Update on the Library Service Grant

During 2007 the Library spent the second of its $135,000 Library Service Grants (LSG), a funding project of Alberta Municipal Affairs & Housing's Libraries Branch.

Read this report on the projects, services, and programs that were made possible thanks to this initiative.

Many thanks to the Minister and staff of the Department for making these funds available. Thanks also go to our local MLA Mary Anne Jablonski and former MLA Victor Doerksen, for their support in making new provincial funds available to public libraries.

The Library broke new ground in the past two years thanks partly to this grant program. The Library has created a more interactive suite of programs and services based on Community Development principles: social justice, participation, equality, learning and cooperation.

Finally, thanks should go to the Library Board for their help in planning LSG programs, and to the Library Management Team and staff for making everything happen.
