Despite closing it's doors due to COVID-19 concerns, the Fort Saskatchewan Public Library (FSPL) is staying open through online services.

Residents can access hundreds of free e-books, audio books, magazines, newspapers, movies and more through the library's website.

"We even have a program that uses the Alberta School curriculum for homework help," FSPL library director Michele Fedyk explained. "Of course we're not able to connect physically, but I think the technology that we have allows us to still make a connection."

Residents who are not registered for a library card can complete the process over phone. Although they will not have a physical card, they will be given a membership number to access the resources online.

"We're doing our best to provide the resources that will maybe help during these times," Fedyk continued.

The library will also be streaming a family story time every Tuesday and Thursday morning at 10:30 a.m. via Facebook live.
