Learning Fusion 360

We share expertise, information, technology and space with Edmontonians for learning, connecting, creating, discovering, enjoying and enriching communities.

Our Mission is why we exist and our Vision is the GPS. We’re experts in helping people access the world's information and ideas, opening doors to learning, possibility and growth.

Our vision: 

• EPL is the gathering place for people and ideas, enabling a lifetime of learning, engagement and possibility for every Edmontonian.
• As Edmonton’s largest lender of information and entertainment, our greatest passion is creating connections to help, grow, inspire and change.
• Our Shared Values are a reflection of who we are and what we believe as an organization. They are an expression of our passionate commitment to share information, ideas, knowledge, resources and expertise with everyone. They describe, define and inspire us.

Customer Focused

• We are real people who put others first. We are compassionate and empathetic. We have diverse experiences, interests and passions, and we bring these to work every day. We accept everyone and adapt to every unique situation and need. We are welcoming, flexible and accessible. We go out of our way to serve Edmontonians.

Innovative

• We are progressive and original. We experiment and we create. We push the boundaries of the modern library. We try new things out and create new services to spur imaginations and inspire learning.

Knowledge Seekers

• We are lifelong learners and a key component of a learning city. We foster a learning environment for both our customers and our staff. Through us, knowledge is discovered and shared, people changed and shaped, and community nurtured and grown.

We are one library, with one staff and one collection. We collaborate to serve the unique needs of our customers and our communities, and deliver an exceptional customer experience. Together we are stronger.

Unfiltered, uncensored and judgement-free, we are excited by ideals, ideas and conversations. We encourage forward thinking and build bridges by bringing diverse groups together. We promote dialogue, increasing understanding and inspiring change. We champion the right for all ideas to be heard.

We act with integrity and honesty. We do big things without big budgets. We are responsible stewards of our public funds. We do what we say, and are accountable to each other, our partners and our community. We work tirelessly to provide a lot for very little, and we offer it to everyone.
