An annual fall event, Ontario Public Library Week was first announced by the province in 1985 and has since become the focus for promoting public library services in Ontario.
A strong library system is the cornerstone of a strong community. Ontario Public Library Week recognizes the important contribution Ontario's public libraries make to education, literacy and life-long learning in Ontario communities. With more than 1,100 service points throughout Ontario, public libraries’ patrons make over 69 million visits to local libraries across Ontario annually. And now virtually every library branch in the province also provides access to electronic information through the Internet.
Public libraries, dedicated librarians and devoted volunteers across the province are planning special activities to mark Ontario Public Library Week and many public libraries are also celebrating Canadian Library Month. So, check-out your local library on-line. Contact the Federation of Ontario Public Libraries for information on Ontario Public Library Week, at telephone (416) 395-5638, email: admin@fopl.ca or website: www.fopl.ca/home/feature2/index.html
