Whether you're new to Canada or you've been here a while, you probably have lots of questions about settling into your new home. We've got answers! The Edmonton Public Library's settlement services offer a series of free presentations on important topics like Employment Standards (knowing your rights and responsibilities), Landlord and Tenant Information, Immigration Issues and more. Guest speakers will discuss a different topic each session and we'll guide you through the many library resources available. Sessions are open to everyone.
