Horrible service from the woman who is delivering on Glendale Boulevard, Red Deer today, June 27,…read more2025. I asked if she had anything for me. She rudely replied no and kept walking. I asked her if she could take the piece of mail that was for someone who no longer lives here. Rudely told me to write something on it and then they would take it (said it too fast to understand) and walked away.

They are getting worse by the day. Sent 2 cards to BC, both seperate times, over 2 months ago and…read moremy friend hasn't received either of them yet. My last 4 online orders have arrived 3-4 days after the posted delivery date. What the hell is going on?

The library is my best friend! They offer a variety of special events, from monthly book clubs,…read moremonthly mini-concerts that are streamed online, and various activities for the kids (From game nights to shared appreciation for the TV show Glee.) For specifics, regularly check their website: http://www.rdpl.org (Oh! And don't forget Café Noir! The perfect place to pick up a latte & snack to enjoy, while reading a book or magazine. Their iced lattes are a bit peculiar in taste and have the consistency of a grainy slushy. Not my fave.) Speaking of the library's website, you can search the catalogue and place holds on items from the comfort of your own home. When available, the library will call or email to tell you your item(s) is ready for pick up at the front desk. This whole process saves you time and effort. The DVD collection is growing every day with the latest releases, as is their audio book collection. I ditched my mail order DVD service, when I learned I could get recent releases from the library at no cost to me. If they don't have a specific book you're looking for, the library offers an inter-library loan service. Give them as much info as you can, and they will search the province for an available copy. The staff members are always friendly and helpful. I understand that the newly remodeled Dawe branch is beautiful, if the downtown branch is inconvenient in location. They will gladly transfer books from one library to the other, for you. Oh! A library card is $10/year, which is more than worth it. Enjoy your next visit!
