5th Anniversary of the Vera Bracken Library

The Vera Bracken Library will be celebrating its 5th anniversary at its current location on the ground floor of the B-wing at the Medicine Hat Campus. Everyone is invited to partake in cake and punch. You can also view a slide show of the library as it was being built - from groundbreaking to finished product.

We are very proud of our facility and we hope you will celebrate our anniversary with us.

Despite the lack of patron traffic in the photos, we went through two large slab cakes and one small one, and we could have served more!
