Library News

Barrie Public Library is proud to announce that Program and Outreach Librarian Chantale Boileau has been nominated for a Barrie Chamber of Commerce Women in Business award!  

Wonderbooks are regular print books with permanently attached audio players that provide a fun and interactive read-along experience!

We all know that you can save money by checking books out at the library instead of buying them. But did you know we can help you save on other things too? A library card unlocks free subscriptions, skill-building classes, family activities, and more!  

Barrie Public Library is excited to announce the launch of the BPL Leaders & Innovative Teens (LIT) Youth United Speaker Series. Speakers will be hosted at our library locations from the end of January to the beginning of March. 

Canada Reads is back for 2024! Join in the debate and borrow one from our catalogue.
