Calgary Public Library commits to listening to learning from and building relationships with local Indigenous communities. We have a responsibility to share the true history of what happened at Indian residential schools and the ongoing intergenerational trauma they caused. Learning the truth is an important first step for all Canadians toward healing our community. We hope to honour all those who attended residential schools and their families through this work.
On September 29 and 30 the Library is partnering with the University of Calgary to offer two National Day for Truth and Reconciliation events available virtually or in person at the Central Library.
In addition on September 30 12:00 pm — 5:00 pm explore Indigenous Placemaking installations by artists connected to Treaty 7 at nine Library locations: Central Crowfoot Forest Lawn Judith Umbach Saddletowne Seton Shawnessy Signal Hill and Village Square libraries.
