The Library Services for Saskatchewan Aboriginal Peoples (LSSAP) committee was established in 1991.

Introduction

Background

Committee

The Committee encourages people of Aboriginal descent, who have an interest in libraries or who work or volunteer in a band /school/ public library, to join the committee at any time. Expenses are not covered by any one source, therefore your local community support is important. Any new members are welcome to host a meeting at their local library. Visit http://lssap.wordpress.com/contact/ for a complete list of LSSAP members
