New Indigenous Collection
The Jasper Municipal Library is proud to house a new collection of Indigenous books donated by the Jasper Rotary Club and Friends of Jasper National Park.
Each item is dedicated to the people of Jasper “for our greater awareness and understanding of the rich history, traditions, and culture of the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. As well as for taking steps to walk together in reconciliation with the First Nations and Métis communities of Alberta and British Columbia whose traditional territories include Jasper National Park, Alberta.”
Summer Reading Club
If you have not signed up for our summer reading club, come into the library today and sign up!
TD Summer Reading Club is Canada's biggest, bilingual summer reading program for kids of all ages, all interests, and all abilities. Whether you're a long-time participant or new to the program, you'll find great resources at the library or online to help you create the best kids summer reading experience ever!
Throughout the summer we have various grab and go activities like Scavenger Hunts, Reading Bingo, Battle of the Books and I Spy. Our in-person programs are Thursdays at 3:30 p.m. The activities are different each week from crafts or science experiments to an escape room or larping. For every activity handed in and program attended kids will get a ballot to put towards one of our 5 prizes!
This summer we will be offering Storytime on Saturdays at 11 a.m. July 9 – Aug 20.
Everyone is welcome.
