The City of Saskatoon invites members of the public to view the Book of Remembrance, on display in the front lobby of Civic Square East (CSE) at 202 4th Avenue North, where the City Archives are located, until Friday, November 14.

A companion to the First World War book created in 2014, the Book of Remembrance was formally presented to the City on October 22, 2018. It is permanently housed at the City of Saskatoon Archives, with copies available at local libraries.
