Library of the Year

Edmonton Public Library has won the 2014 Gale/LJ Library of the Year. This library is doing some interesting things and obviously engages with the community really effectively. Read all about the library and its programs in Library Journal. Its great to see that leadership and teamwork are credited with having made the library so successful.
