The Strathcona Branch of EPL is the oldest purpose-built library that remains in our city. Opened in 1913, the grand brick building has faced its own demise more than one in its 106 years. But it still stands and welcomes all Edmontonians (as well as guests to this territory) to access all the library has to offer, including a fascinating history.
This guide walks you through the library building itself – a municipal and provincial historical resource – with information on its key architectural features. It also shares stories from the last century of public library history in our city.
