Redwater Public Library offers something for everyone

By Brandie Majeau
The Redwater Public Library is thrilled to announce its upcoming year’s
programming, with events designed for all ages and backgrounds. As you enter the
bright and welcoming room, the familiar scent of books fills you with nostalgia and
happiness. Recently, the library’s annual report has been released, highlighting the
demand for the local library. In 2023, the library had 13,785 visitors who borrowed over
14,000 items, and its four computers recorded 7,493 public Wi-Fi connections.
The Redwater Library is proud to offer its Toddler Morning Program every
Thursday. This program provides a safe space for families to read, play, or connect with
other families. The program has been running successfully for almost a year now,
highlighting the need and positive response from the community. Apart from this, the
Redwater Library is also partnering with Sturgeon Adult Learning to provide programs
on digital literacy. These classes teach basic computer skills and the use of handheld
devices such as smartphones, all at a low cost. The library also provides after-school
programs including makerspace, steam, and Lego clubs. With spring-break fast
approaching, Redwater Library is offering a host of fun activities in addition to being
able to drop in to grab a book, a movie or take a few moments to embark on their winter
scavenger hunt.
The dedication of staff and volunteers ensure that Redwater Library is always
offering an amazing array of resources and quality programming. The building is
brimming with ideas and creativity and learning resources. Redwater Library
encourages patrons to always stop in and see what is going on and keep up to date on
all the future programming and activities to join.
