Based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Saskatoon Public Library operates a citywide system that includes the Frances Morrison Central Library and eight branches, serving residents for more than a century. It provides access to a broad collection of materials and a range of programs in welcoming, community‑oriented spaces, supporting learning, literacy and civic engagement. It serves the public, including newcomers and marginalized populations, with emphasis on equality and diversity and initiatives aligned with the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action, as well as English language learning through EAL programs. In response to a changing digital landscape, SPL offers free access to online learning resources and a broad media collection, while maintaining traditional programs for children and families and incorporating technology-enabled activities. The library conducts outreach, such as visits to crisis shelters, loans to correctional facilities, and home deliveries for those unable to visit, and, in September 2024, announced the appointment of Carol Shepstone as the new director of libraries and chief executive officer, effective November 4, 2024.
