Township of Langley Libraries win Cultural Diversity award
Library’s Outreach Programs and Marketing Recognized Second Time
Friday March 7th - in front of dozens of dignitaries including BC Lieutenant-Governor Steven Point, MPs, MLA's, and members of numerous municipal councils (and almost 400 others) - the Township of Langley Libraries was awarded the prestigious 2008 Fraser Valley Cultural Diversity Award for Marketing and Outreach at the 6th Annual Awards Ceremony held at Ramada Plaza and Conference Centre, Abbotsford.
Accepting the award on behalf of Township of Langley Libraries, Community Librarian Sarwan Singh Randhawa noted, “One of the goals of our library is to reach out to all members of the community, to leave no one out.” Sarwan went on to thank all of the Langley community service agencies, media, businesses and individual members of the community who work with the library and so enthusiastically support the library’s efforts.
The Fraser Valley Cultural Diversity Awards Ceremony annually recognizes and awards best practices amongst Fraser Valley businesses and service providers in responding to, and being inclusive of, the diversity in the region they serve. The event - which spans the regions from Chilliwack to the Langleys - has been running 5 years and has become extremely popular, selling out its 400 seats every year well in advance.
