At the Core

Back in the days of sensible shoes, buns and shushing (and YES, those days are past) the library world held the same basic values it does today. If any of the concepts below inspire you with noble aspirations, you may have found your calling - in libraries.

• Literacy & Education
• Serving the Public
• Intellectual Freedom
• Access to Information
• Information Intermediary
• Preservation
• Professionalism

The current climate for librarians in Canada is one that promotes the importance of civic responsibility, community outreach, information policy design and professional advocacy work.
