Coalition of Alberta Public Libraries materials
On May 29, the Coalition of Alberta Public Libraries held a webinar to discuss amendments in Bill 28, the Municipal Affairs and Housing Statutes Amendment Act, 2026, that impact Alberta’s libraries.
For those who were unable to attend the webinar, we are sharing, on behalf of the Coalition:
A Regulatory Fix List, outlining recommended updates and considerations
The webinar recording, for a full overview of the discussion
The slide deck from the presentation, summarizing key takeaways and impacts
In terms of other aspects of Bill 28, Alberta Municipalities (ABmunis) expects to be engaged in the development of regulations related to a Councillor Accountability Framework this summer. Members will be kept informed as work to implement Bill 28 continues and additional details become available.
In the meantime, our Analysis of Bill 28 is available here to better understand the potential implications for municipalities.
