Public invited to view Books of Remembrance at City Archives, biographies of Saskatoon residents who served

The City of Saskatoon invites residents to view the Books of Remembrance, on display until Friday, November 20 in the front lobby of Civic Square East ( where City Archives is located) and the City Archives Reading Room at 202 4th Avenue North. 

Residents can visit Monday to Friday 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM., excluding Remembrance Day.

Compiled and donated to the City by the Military Institute of Saskatoon, an association of former and serving members of the Canadian Armed Forces and RCMP, the commemorative books include biographies of Saskatoon residents who served in the First World War, Second World War, Korean War, Afghan War and peacetime operations.

The Books of Remembrance were formally presented to the City on October 22, 2018. They are permanently housed at the City of Saskatoon Archives, with copies also available at local libraries.

Residents are encouraged to take part in this meaningful commemoration and reflect on the sacrifices made in service to Canada.
