It's Giving Season   

Did you know that Oakville Public Library is a registered charity? Government funding covers the core expenses (like administration, infrastructure, maintenance and operations), but your donations fuel change.

This year, with Oakville Community Foundation's GIVEOakville campaign, help us launch meaningful Indigenous initiatives at the library. From educational programs and cultural events to welcoming spaces for Indigenous gatherings, we are committed to creating opportunities for everyone to learn and celebrate together. With your support, we can advance our reconciliation journey, honour Indigenous traditions, and build a stronger, more connected community.
