The Okotoks Library Board is a charitable organization based in Okotoks, Alberta, classified by the CRA under public amenities. It appears on the charity register the way hospitals, universities, and other publicly funded bodies do — to issue tax receipts — rather than as a donation-driven charity in the usual sense. In its fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, it reported $1.7M in revenue and $1.6M in expenditures.
Its funding that year was roughly 90% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 4 other registered charities reported granting it a combined $26K.
Compared with 276 public-amenity institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 65% of peers. Its highest-paid position fell in the $80,000–119,999 range. The charity reported 12 permanent full-time positions.
