One hundred years, one hundred stories. As part of the library's centennial celebration next year, we are currently seeking submissions for Indie-Lethbridge 2019. This second year collection will be composed of stories written by Southern Alberta authors, or set in the same area. 

We are pleased to announce the library will now be accepting children's materials and music albums as part of this collection. Anyone interested in making a submission can fill out the form below and either email the form to indie@lethlib.ca or return it to any library service counter.

The Lethbridge Public Library will be closed on Monday, February 18 (Family Day). 

Love reading?  We've got a new book club for teen bookworms.

Meet us at the Crossings Branch once a month to talk about a book that fits with the monthly theme.

• February 26  (read a book with LGTBQA+ characters)
• March 26 (read a book by a woman)
• April 30 (read poetry or a novel in verse)

Anyone in grades 7-12 is welcome to attend!  We'll also have book prizes to give away, and tasty snacks to share.

A young mother's extended love note to a city's storied and notorious neighbourhood.

Join the library as we host author Carrisa Halton, who will be delivering a talk entitled: "Lessons on Community from My Misunderstood Neighbourhood," which draws from her new book.

Carissa Halton's debut book, Little Yellow House: Finding Community in a Changing Neighbourhood tells the stories of community life in a notorious Edmonton neighbourhood. It is a book of stories that explore issues of neighbourhood and community in the face of crime, fear, and slow revitilization. Threaded through this collection of essays are questions about the social and economic forces that shape and reshape our cities.

The presentation will include both an author reading and an audience question period. Copies of Little Yellow House will be available for sale.
