Especially relevant with the new Saskatchewan Employment Act being proclaimed the other day…
The subject of user fees in Alberta public libraries is of great interest to me. That’s why I was very excited when a colleague recently informed me that a pilot project to remove user fees at Edmonton Public Library during the library’s centennial year was being made permanent! The number of people with library cards […]

An entire hour and a half long Fred Eaglesmith concert, taped in Holland? Man, I love the Internet for so many reasons…it eliminates time, distance and provides access to stuff you’d never see otherwise.
