FLA Events Line

The Foothills Library Association provides the Events Line as a service to the library community, primarily in Calgary, Alberta, and the surrounding area, but also includes events of interest to library workers in the rest of the Prairie Provinces, British Columbia and the North. It is a free service to you can use to advertise your local library’s or library associations’ events.

Although the Events Line service is free and run by volunteers (like the Jobline), your membership fees help to support it. If you are not a member, we encourage you to obtain a $25 yearly membership. More information may be found on the Membership page.

The Events Line lists library related events at the professional, technical, and community levels. It is updated daily as submissions are found or received. To list an event, e-mail the relevant information as text in the body of the message and not as an attachment to events@fla.org. Please note that because of the very high risk of receiving a virus through email attachments, they will not be accepted.

The Foothills Library Association reserves the right to choose whether or not to post events on its Events Line. Please try to include all the necessary information in your events posting as will not be able to contact groups for clarification. For questions about the Events Line, send an e-mail to events@fla.org.
