ONTARIO LIBRARY SERVICE
Welcome to the Ontario Library Service Website
A Message from our CEO.
Welcome to the Ontario Library Service Website!
April 1, 2021 marks day one of the Ontario Library Service. Throughout this amalgamation both SOLS and OLS – North shared a deep commitment to providing services and supports that strengthened Ontario’s public libraries. This dedication has been a constant guiding force that has brought us to this first day of operations as the Ontario Library Service.
The Ontario Library Service is committed to providing responsive and reliable service to public library staff and boards so that they are well equipped to best serve their communities. The Ontario Library Service encourages and supports the collaboration and networking that is at the core of a successful public library sector in Ontario.
In celebrating our commitment to Ontario’s public library sector we want to showcase the strength and diversity of each of your public libraries. I am inviting Ontario’s public libraries to send in an image that illustrates your unique library for selection to be featured on the Ontario Library Service Homepage. Watch your inbox for submission details.
The incredible impact that public libraries have on individuals in their communities inspires me each and every day. I am honoured to lead the Ontario Library Service and the incredible people who serve under its banner to empower each library in Ontario to adapt and improve services to their unique communities.
