Sylvan Lake Municipal Library

We remain committed to serving Sylvan Lake residents with inclusive, trusted access to information and library services.

We understand that these changes will impact public libraries across Alberta and are taking time to review and assess what they mean for our library and our community.

The Sylvan Lake Municipal Library is aware of the Province’s recent announcement regarding amendments to the Libraries Act.
