Mississauga First Nation Public Library….

Hello,

Again, after conducting some online searches, I found a link to the home page for the Mississauga First Nation Public Library. The site can be accessed at the following address:

http://www.onlink.net/~mfnlib/library.htm

The site itself is nothing fancy but the successful implementation of the library itself is incredible. From the website, the library opened in 1986, and currently serves an on-reserve population of 465 people. Among lending all sorts of materials, the library also produces a Firts Naitions Newsletter that helps to inform the on and off Reserve populations.

This library represents the need and popularity of  library services in light of current access issues for First Nations populations within Canada. Establishing such libraries can only help to strengthen the community ties and involvement to each other and a common place of recreation.

Thanks.
