Banff Public Library

Banff Public Library is a member of the Marigold Library System and The Regional Automation Consortium (TRAC). We are pleased to offer free library programs, services, and resources to all Banff residents and visitors.

Library membership is free for all residents of the town of Banff and Improvement District No. 9 (ID9) - the area outside of the town of Banff but within Banff National Park, including Lake Louise and Saskatchewan River Crossing.

Non-residents may obtain a membership for a non-refundable annual fee of $70. 00.

Your library card permits you to borrow physical materials and access online resources.

A library card is not required to attend library programs or to use the computers, Internet /Wi-Fi, or any materials within the library.

Twenty-five items may be borrowed at a time. Books, magazines, and audiobooks can be borrowed for 3 weeks, and DVDs can be borrowed for 7 days.

Banff Public Library does not charge late fees but encourages patrons to return their items by the due dates so that they are available for others to borrow. Late fees by donation are welcome.
