| The Chinook
Regional Library
was established on June 1, 1971. It serves the people
of southwestern Saskatchewan,
covering an area of 19,286 square miles or 49,949 square kilometres. This public library
service can offer the
people an opportunity to acquire material for information and enjoyment. It is an essential part of
the
community. The
branch librarian in each community
is the contact with the public, and is, therefore, the most essential
worker in
the library system. The
Chinook Regional
Library depends on its branch librarians to carry out its programs of
service
to the area.
This manual is
designed to
help the branch librarian be as efficient as possible, with a broad
understanding of what library service really involves.
