The library has under gone many changes over the years, from joining the Western Manitoba Regional Library system to a structural addition added in the summer of 1990, program changes as well as changes in staff. But the one thing that has not changed is the welcoming and relaxed feeling of the library’s atmosphere. The staff is pleasant and willing to help patrons with their questions, selections and requests. The library is housed in the former Canada Post Building (1938) with an addition being added in 2007. The building that houses the Library became a designated heritage site on June 12th, 2007.
