Little Free Libraries Ease Access To Books Across Medicine Hat

If you know of a Little Free Library not listed here, send the info to Chris at [email protected]
Posted on 31 August 2026 by Chris Brown.

One of the primary goals of Medicine Hat Public Library is to champion and advocate for reading and literacy. We know it’s not always convenient for people to come to us downtown, or even to our micro library at the Big Marble Go Centre. Little Free Libraries (LFL) scattered in neighbourhoods across the community are another way for people to easily access books. 

Almost a year after starting this project we have updated our record of Little Free Libraries.

Thank you to everyone who answered our calls last fall and this summer to submit LFL locations to us for this project. 

Doubtless there are more out there not on this list. If you know of one, please send the information to Chris at [email protected] and he’ll make sure it gets added to this list.
