La Crete Community Library

Library services in the Community were enhanced in 2015 through the hard work and dedication of the local La Crete Library Society and the Mackenzie County Library Board in partnerships with Mackenzie County and the Alberta Treasury Branch… the dream of a stand alone library was one step closer!  ATB built a new facility in the community and the original branch building was sold for $1 to Mackenzie County for the purpose of a new Library location… then the hard work began!  The La Crete Library Society pulled together… took the challenge of turning the old bank on a prominent corner of Main Street into a Library!  They fund-raised, applied for grants, brainstormed, planned, tore apart, built up, and put together a beautiful space, including keeping the original ‘vault’!  On October 4, 2016 the Grand Opening of the newly redesigned La Crete Library took place!
