Administrative history
Film councils were established in Saskatchewan in the 1950's. Moose Jaw Film Council was established in [1951?]. It was the duty of the film council to provide equipment, films and bring the community together on the matter of utilization so that all organizations in the community knew the uses of films. Moose Jaw Film Council became a member of the Southern Saskatchewan Federation of Film Councils in 1954. The objects of the federation were to operate a film purchase pool, to establish and operate a rotating film library, to act as a clearing house of information for film councils, film libraries, and film depots in the federation, and to promote and coordinate special activities in the federation area. Moose Jaw Film Council was also a member of the Film Council of Saskatchewan. On April 6, 1964 the Moose Jaw Film Council decided to disband and asked the Moose Jaw Public Library to take over its functions and activities.
