Central Albertans will have the chance to learn more about oceans and rivers with a new travelling display.
Library users will be able to borrow from a stack of 26 new books and DVDs on topics of river and ocean ecology. Parkland Regional Library has partnered with the Central Alberta chapter of Trout Unlimited Canada to develop this new travelling book display.
It will begin touring Central Alberta libraries in November.
Parkland’s director Ron Sheppard said Parkland is pleased to collaborate with Trout Unlimited in this way.
“Trout Unlimited approached us with a generous donation this summer and has since provided expert advice about which materials to purchase,” said Sheppard.
“This fall, Parkland has been able to develop, catalogue and promote the collection throughout our entire system of 50 member libraries.”
Any Parkland library can sign up to host the travelling display. The display’s first stop is the Coronation Memorial Library, where it will be for a month.
It will then go to the Delburne Municipal Library.
The collection has something for all ages, with titles like: Going Blue: A Teen Guide to Saving Our Oceans, Lakes, Rivers and Wetlands.
