8 Libraries in Edmonton That You Shouldn't Miss

As North America’s northernmost large metropolis, Edmonton is a fascinating study in contrasts — a vibrant urban center in the heart of the wilderness. It’s a city that’s never been afraid to do things a little differently, as visitors discover through close encounters with free-roaming bison, a shopping mall that spans more than 48 city blocks, and a dynamic arts and culture scene that embraces more than 40 annual festivals, including the continent’s biggest and wildest Fringe Theatre Festival.

The exterior of the new building got lots of negative reviews on social media, but thankfully the inside is much nicer! With bright open spaces, brand new technology, and eye-catching art, this new building is definitely worth a visit!
