Mission Statement

The mission of the Peace Library System is to assist municipalities in meeting the information, educational and cultural needs of their residents in the most cost-effective and efficient way possible by the sharing of resources and expertise among public and school libraries.

Vision Statement

All residents of northwestern Alberta will have equal access to excellent library service.

Belief Statements

WE BELIEVE THAT: access to library services should be equal and universal.  This is accomplished through sharing and cooperation.

WE BELIEVE THAT: sharing resources provides efficient use of community resources. As a library system, we can provide more effectively a pool of knowledge and expertise and organize the sharing of those resources among members.

WE BELIEVE THAT: a library system is only as effective as its members. The members are joined together in a federated system, rather than the system existing as a single entity outside the membership. By using the energy, input and support from the local level, each member has a say in running the system.
