Connaught Branch is one of Regina Public Library's inner-city branches, and it offers visitors a variety of services and diverse collections. This branch first opened to the public in 1931, and continues to play a pivotal role in the community, co-sponsoring programs with the Cathedral Area Community Association and the Community Schools in the neighbourhood.
The Branch offers after-school programming for children, as well as an eclectic selection of programming for teens and adults that reflects the diversified interest of this area of Regina.
