Who can join the Garrison Library? Anyone living in Lancaster Park or Sturgeon County can become a Library member. If you live outside of Lancaster Park or Sturgeon County, you can sign up with ME Libraries and join our TRAC system. You'll be able to come to the Garrison Library and borrow materials just like anyone else.
How can I become a Library member? Joining the Library is easy! Just come by with a piece of ID and we'll sign you up. It's that simple.
How much is a Library membership? Library memberships are 100% FREE! What are you waiting for?
NOTE: The Garrison Library is a public library. As such it is open to all members of the public, not just military and DND members and their families. While we do our best to serve the needs of the military community and focus our collection development accordingly, please keep in mind that we serve all of Sturgeon County and all ME Library patrons as well.
Am I considered a Sturgeon County Resident? Residents are public and military members living in Sturgeon County (including Bon Accord, Gibbons, Redwater), Lancaster Park, or single quarters in Edmonton Garrison. So if you live in one of these places, you are considered a Sturgeon County resident.
Who are Non-Residents? Anyone who resides outside of Sturgeon County, including public and military members living in Edmonton, Legal, St. Albert, Fort Saskatchewan, etc. ME Libraries allows non-residents to borrow materials from the Garrison Library (and any other participating library in Alberta, including such libraries as Edmonton Public, St. Albert Public, Calgary Public, Wainwright, and Cold Lake) just like a resident patron.
What can I access using ME Libraries? By signing up with ME Libraries, you will have access to all of our physical materials, as well as the physical materials from other participating libraries! However, signing up does not apply to digital collections. You will need to be a Sturgeon County Resident to sign up for a membership and be able to access our digital collection.
