Library looking for donations to fund service improvements
MEDICINE HAT, AB — The Medicine Hat Public Library is looking for help from the public to help improve their services now and into the future.
During Friday’s Lovin’ the Library fundraising event, the library revealed they would be operating with an $87,000 shortfall this year, due to a reduction in funding from both the City of Medicine Hat and Cypress County, according to chief librarian Ken Feser.
“It’s not something that’s going to cause us to shut our doors or anything like that, but we are having to adjust a few things, and it does mean too that we can’t do some of the new and exciting things that we want to do,” he said on Monday.
