I began yesterday morning with an LRT trip to the Century Park Station. Edmonton Public Library’s first book “vending machine” was installed this morning to serve transit commuters with their morning book fix. As one of the trustees for the Edmonton Public Library, I was thrilled to see an enthusiastic media there in full force. You can read more about the pilot program by clicking here and here.
The link between Edmonton Public Schools and the Edmonton Public Library is obvious.

This is great news for the residents of Ward F, especially those of us that spoke with our city councilors and urged them to keep Scona Pool open. As the Marketing Director for the Edmonton Federation of Community Leagues, I know how important this pool is to healthy, liveable neighbourhoods. I also happen to be a frequent user of the pool myself, so last week I did my part to help with the effort. You can read my letter to the councilors on the Community Services Committee by clicking
