The library collection of the Society has been moved to the High Level Municipal Library. These books are available as part of the High Level Municipal Library's collection of FASD material.

The material from the NWR FASD Society is available as an inter-library loan to all library patrons of the partnership to which the High Level Library belongs. This partnership is composed of four regional library systems: Marigold Library System, Northern Lights Library System, Peace Library System, Yellowhead Regional Library, and their member libraries. At their website www.tracpac.ab.ca, patrons can view the catalogue of the complete collection of the partnership. As the material from the NWR FASD Society is added to the collection, it also will appear on this catalogue. For information on accessing the collection, please call the High Level Municipal Library at (780) 926 2097.
