The Edson & District Public Library is an invaluable community resource! We are a gathering space to learn, grow, and play. With our participation in the Yellowhead Regional Library System, our library is a single point access to millions of resources. We share e-Resources (eBooks, audiobooks, digital magazines, etc.), books, AV, magazines, games and provide printing and photocopying, exam invigilation, programs for all ages, Wi-Fi, public internet, and computer support.
