PLS Equipment

This includes a collection of equipment that can be borrowed for community nights and other outreach events. For more information, please contact Tanya Huffman at thuffman@peacelibrarysystem.ab.ca. PLS Equipment is available to PLS member libraries to borrow for a 3-week loan period.
PLS equipment can be delivered via PLS van runs or picked up directly at Peace Library System headquarters.
