we are so excited for new things to come ! ✨🥲
Every community needs a place where curiosity is encouraged, stories are shared and neighbours come together—and in Ryley, the McPherson Municipal Library is that place.
Founded in 1975 through the efforts of school librarian Harriet Ruddy, the library has grown from its beginnings as part of the local school library into an important resource for the Ryley community. It provides access to books, movies, educational opportunities and programming, while honouring the community’s history and the voices of its elders. Through initiatives such as its Summer Reading Program and partnerships with organizations like Family and Community Support Services (FCSS) and the Community Adult Learning Program (CALP), the library continues to create a safe, accessible and welcoming environment for learning and connection.
With support from the Claystone Community Grant, the Ryley McPherson Municipal Library can continue offering the resources and programming that bring people together and strengthen the community.
To learn more about the library and its programs, check them out at McPherson Municipal Library!
