Through the past year, money that our club has donated to the Spruce Grove Library has been put towards:
1) Osmo coding and gaming systems, virtual reality programs and tablets with new apps to the Innovation Lab
2) they have expanded children and youth programs. Also expanding the Little Free Libraries to our neighbouring Indigenous communities.
3) introducing doll themed literacy backpacks, Indigenous adult and children's books and the all-in-one computers to a new group of young users.
The library has completed a new Plan of Service in 2018 which will officially launch in January 2019. The library's three areas of focus for the next 5 years are:
Visit a comfortable place: Community members of all ages will have barrier-free access to welcoming physical and virtual spaces.
Practice and Promote Inclusion: Community members of all ages will have programs and services that embrace diversity through acceptance, appreciation, and recognition of all people in our community.
Encourage Literacy: Community members of all ages will have programs and services that provide opportunity for life-long learning while helping them make sense of the world in a variety of ways.
