  • Media Release
    MEDIA RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 20, 2016 Dr. Freda Ahenakew Honoured in Renaming of Saskatoon Public Library Branch SASKATOON, SK – Saskatoon’s Public Library (SPL) is renaming one of its branches on the city’s west side to the Dr. Freda Ahenakew Branch. Located adjacent to Station 20 West and currently named The Library on 20th Street Branch, this facility was renamed as part of SPL’s commitment to responding to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Calls to Action. The new name was chosen following consultation with Elders representing Indigenous peoples living in Saskatoon and area. “Dr. Ahenakew was a truly inspiring woman whose tireless work preserving Indigenous languages, particularly Cree, has had profound and lasting effects throughout Canada. Our organization is truly honoured and pleased to be able to acknowledge her outstanding efforts and perseverance in this meaningful way,” says Carol Cooley, CEO and Director of Libraries with SPL. From a young age, a love of Cree language and culture was instilled in Freda Ahenakew. Later, as an internationally recognized scholar, she would become one its greatest advocates and keepers. Ahenakew returned to high school at the age of 38 to serve as a role model for her 12 children. She graduated in 1969, and afterward received a Bachelor of Education degree (1979) and Master of Arts degree (1983). Her graduate thesis, Cree Language Structures: A Cree Approach, became her first published work and has since been reprinted 18 times. She taught at various universities and linguistic organizations throughout the 1980s and 90s, including serving as an assistant professor in Native Studies at the University of Saskatchewan (1983 – 85) and as director of the Saskatchewan Indian Languages Institute (1985 – 89).
