This isn't the most historical building you'll ever see and chances are unless you live in Leduc or…read moreare coming out this way it probably isn't worth coming out here just to see this. That said Leduc doesn't have much for historical icons or buildings, so to see this is pretty cool. The Stone Barn itself is just the outside stone and wood beams (I think a fire destroyed most of the original barn) so it's all open, but still quite pretty. There is an old farmhouse and milking barn along with walkways (it's right on the multiway), picnic tables and gardens. Stagework's is located here as well. This a nice little area and very popular for weddings (I think the wait time for reserving The Stone Barn is at a year). If you are here in the summer on weekend then expect to see a Wedding, if not it's usually pretty quiet unless Stagework's has something going. There is a parking lot here, but if the weather is nice or you are prepared then you can bike or walk along the multiway. For being a cool and historical landmark in Leduc I give this place 5 stars.

This is a review for the new location of the Leduc Public Library, which is attached to the north…read moreside of the Civic Center, right next to where the original library was. Unfortunately, I tried calling the library to get a physical address of the new library location but the lady I spoke to didn't have one. If you turn to park at the Alexandra Arena though the new library is in the same parking lot. It's a huge building and pretty hard to miss. Part of me was sad when I found out the old library was closing, because that's where I spent a lot of time as a kid (yes, I am a book nerd), but I've been to the new library a few times now and it is awesome. The building is much bigger than the original (18,000 square feet according to an article in the paper) and it is something Leduc really needs. It has a more modern design than the old library with glass windows on the front and the west side. It makes the library look brighter and more open. There are plenty of computers around for looking up books, and just like before the library is hooked up to the TRAC system so you can put a hold on any available library item in the province. The library has lots of seating including desks with power outlets and a long counter with high bar style chairs along the west side of the building, which overlooks the Civic Centre reservoir (and currently the construction area for the splash park). At the back wall is a gas fireplace with a seating arrangement of several comfortable armchairs and side tables. The fireplace wasn't going when I went, likely because it was pretty nice outside, but when it was colder it was going. There are also two rows of computer work desks with internet near the front. The back is also where the washrooms are. The old library washrooms were a one single bathroom (one male, one female) and you needed a key from the librarian to unlock the door. These washrooms don't require a key. It's just like a regular bathroom with stalls. I don't know about the men's washroom, but the women's washroom had 5 toilets and three sinks. The washroom also uses eco-friendly flush toilets, and there's a small step for little kids to use the sink. The library also has two self-checkout counter, as well as a main staffed checkout/information desk at the front. The self-checkout is easy to use. You scan your barcode and enter your pin. Then you scan your items and you can choose whether or not to get a receipt. You can also renew books and check your account at the self-checkouts. One thing the new location doesn't have (yet) is wording on the sides of the shelves to let you know what section you're in (fiction, nonfiction, etc). Of course on the sides of the books, and on the front of the multimedia items there is still the Dewey Decimal information. From what I could tell the kids and young adult stuff is on far left side, then there's the nonfiction section, then to the right of that is fiction, and finally close the right wall are multimedia and reference section. Holds to pick up are near the front of the library, as are large print and nonEnglish books. I'm sure the library will put the sections on the sides of the shelves eventually. Some of the shelves are barer than before, but I think that's just because there's so much more space than at the old location. As more items come in the shelves will seem less bare. The library staff has been really helpful and friendly since I've come to the new library. They've always said hi or asked if I need help finding something or using the self-checkout. While there's been quite a few people in the library when I've gone I haven't found it any noisier or busier than before. Actually because the space is so big it seems quieter. The library still offers different programs for kids and meetings for different events, but I didn't use or see any of the private meeting areas so I can't comment on that Important things to know. - You need a pin to use the self-checkout. You can ask for help if you don't remember your pin or need to set one up. - There are return slots inside the library and on the outside of the building at the front. There isn't a drive-thru return slot anymore. - There are steps to get up to the library as well as a ramp for those with mobility issues. - Library fines, as far as I know, still have to be paid in cash. No debit or credit. - The library has free WiFi, and there are computers with Internet. The computers with internet are only available until 30 minutes before closing. - As of this review date, library cards are still free to residents of Leduc. - You can no longer access the library through the Civic Centre. - The parking lot is the same one at the Alex Arena, and when there's events at the Alex hockey games, etc. it could get a bit busy.

All I have to say is that I am so glad that I have re-discovered the library! I haven't been to a…read morelibrary in about 15 years, and I am so glad to live in a community with such a beautiful location. This library is huge! I did find the shelves a little bare when I first walked through, but no worries! You can just request a book and they will bring it in for you. I found that there are a lot of places to sit, whether it's at a table or on the couches. My favorite spot is by the fireplace, but I'm not the only one who likes it there. The only down side is that I found it a little loud for a library, especially later in the afternoon once the kids were out of school. A library, in my opinion, should not be an after school daycare with kids running around and yelling. I found it hard to concentrate and there were students trying to study that found it distracting and ended up just leaving. Other then that I absolutely love it here and look forward to many visits in the future.

Terrible service…read more They refused to serve me over the holidays informing me they closed at 5:30 - it was 5:20 (as per the clock in their store). Avoid this location at all costs. They will blankly stare you in the face and refuse you service.
