On Aug. 15, 1913, the Moose Jaw Public Library (MJPL) had its official opening.
Exactly 100 years later, the library, which is in the same location, is celebrating its centennial.
“It’s a beautiful building. Everybody that you talk to from other parts of Saskatchewan always says, ‘Oh yeah, you’ve got that gorgeous library,’” said Laura Shtern, assistant librarian at the MJPL. It’s just such a wonderful treasure for the city to have this beautiful library building.”
On Thursday the library will hold all-day festivities to celebrate the centennial. At 11 a.m. there will be a heritage building tour, a children’s concert with Lee and Sandy Paley and a teen photo scavenger hunt.
