Today is Canadian Library Workers’ Day.

Libraries are such an important part of our communities because of the people who work in them.

Today, we are celebrating the library and information workers across Alberta who answer questions, help people find what they need, support programs and services, and make libraries places people can count on.

Has a librarian or library worker made a difference for you?

Share your story in the comments and help us say thank you.
