At last Neepawa is going to have a public library. Such was the decision arrived at by over 60 Neepawa citizens who met in the courthouse to discuss the matter Friday night. The name will be the Neepawa Public Library Association and although its not expected that it will be an ideal library for several months, those who are interested are confident that a good start has been made and if the organization plans are carried out, there is no reason why the project should not be a success. Several of the book clubs in Neepawa are responsible for the organization and the recommendations they made to the meeting were carried out. Where the library will be situated has not yet been decided, it is hoped to obtain some of the vacant space in the post office building.

This allows the company a chance to be more present in the community and better able to recognize the specific needs of community members.
