SaskBooks Closed for Truth and Reconciliation Day

The SaskBooks office will be closed on Thursday, September 30th to observe and honour Canada Truth and Reconciliation Day.

Some ways you can consider observing the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation are wearing an Orange Shirt (Orange Shirt Day), reading the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action (Calls to Action) to see how you or your organization can work to start applying them, or by finding and taking part in activities in your local community or online.

SaskBooks would like to highlight Diana Hope Tegenkamp’s reading of Girl running and accompanying film poem as part of Saskatchewan Book Week. To attend this virtual reading and for other Book Week 2021 events, visit the Book Week website.

The SaskBook office will reopen on Friday, October 1st.
