Summer Reading Clubs are here!!

Getting a library card is easy and can save you thousands of dollars a year. It allows you to borrow books, movies, musical instruments and TV shows for free, as well as access online learning and use our Digital Library. We’re expanding memberships at no charge to students enrolled in all Barrie schools and individuals who work in Barrie.

Registration is open for our Detective Pikachu and Legeld of Zelda Escape Rooms this summer! Register in person, by phone or by email (online registration not available). Ages 10-16.

The Library is the place to be during March Break - we've got a fantastic lineup of activities and shows planned from March 9 to March 16 for school-aged kids and youth!

Barrie Winterfest is quickly approaching! Join us the first weekend of February for our Indigenous Speaker series, Jazz & Blues Festival performance, and more! 

We've partnered with the City of Barrie's Creative Economy department and BRIX to offer a Maker in Residence series this fall and winter. Join us at the library to learn the basics of maker activities like coding, woodworking and more.
