Wetaskiwin Public cited for its work with Aboriginal communities

There are individual libraries in Alberta doing great things to include Aboriginal communities in a vision of seamless access: for example, Edmonton Public Library has an Aboriginal Community Librarian, Wetaskiwin Public Library has successful multicultural programming, the Paddle Prairie Library on the Paddle Prairie Métis Settlement is a member of the Peace Library System, and Chinook Arch Regional Library System is building a partnership with the Red Crow Tribal College. The branch is currently working with Alberta’s public libraries, regional library systems, and other government departments to build on local successes and achieve a more collaborative approach.
