Libraries near Moose Lake MB (353 Result(s))

The library was established in 1974 with the Official Opening taking place on November 2nd of that same year. It began on the second floor of the old brick school which also housed the museum. It soon became apparent that there was a need for easier access to the library and a new site would fit the bill. In 1983 as a centennial project a new library was built and found a permanent home on Main Street. Through the years there have been many changes, mostly in the field of technology, but the library's basic principle to provide the best service to our community remains the same.

The most widely accepted reason for the choice of the name Broadview was the fact that Broadview was situated on a wide expanse of unexplored territory. The Native Indians had to traverse many miles to get wood for fuel. The name was bestowed upon it during the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1882 when this was the west end of rail and the only 'view' was a vast expanse of prairie.
