Guiding Principles

Bibliothèque de Beaumont Library is a member of Yellowhead Regional Library.  We are also a member of The Regional Automation Consortium (TRAC) and of The Alberta Library (TAL).  Our participation in The Alberta Library gives our patrons access to 15 million items in over 230 Alberta libraries.

All residents of the City of Beaumont and Leduc County can have access to these services using their Beaumont Library Card.

Our Vision:

The Beaumont Library is a place for everyone to gather, explore, learn, and express themselves.

Our Mission:

Connecting people to ideas, experiences, and one another.

Our Values:  

Connection

We are community connectors, seeking out opportunities to collaborate and learn with our customers, community, businesses, and government.  We believe that connection is the key to individual and community well-being.

Courage

We try new things, innovate, and take prudent risks.  We are not afraid to make mistakes, learn, and adapt.  We meet challenges with curiosity and an eye for possibilities.

Fun

We have fun!  Whether we're running a story time, helping a customer find their next great read, or sitting in a meeting, we find ways to make each other smile.

Inclusivity

We strive to make the library a welcoming, safe place.  We listen to marginalized communities, and we commit to accountability and change.  We are vulnerable and brave in our pursuit of equity and inclusion.

Respect

We meet people where they are, with dignity and openness.  We know that everyone has a unique lived experience.  We can learn from these experiences.
