On November 23, the Simcoe Muskoka region was placed in the Orange zone for COVID-19 precautions. Learn what this means for the Barrie Public Library. 

Those looking to support a local cause during this year’s Giving Tuesday movement can feel good about supporting the Barrie Public Library. As a Giving Tuesday initiative, the Library has launched its Books Across Barrie campaign to further expand its Visiting Library Service (VLS) home delivery to local homebound adults, seniors and seniors’ residences.
