National Youth Week is May 1 – 7! We are dedicated to celebrating youth and their active participation in their community. This could be drama, sport, dance, civic engagement, volunteering, and more.  

From April 27 to May 3, 2025, the Barrie Public Library will be celebrating our volunteers during National Volunteer Week. This annual celebration is a time to thank and recognize our many amazing volunteers that help make our programs and services possible. 

Here at BPL, we believe poetry is important because it uniquely captures and communicates human emotions, experiences, and perspectives, fostering empathy, reflection, and cultural heritage. Join us as we celebrate National Poetry Month this April!
