Welcome to the Burnaby Public Library website. We hope you’ll find everything you need, whether it’s an award-winning novel, new music, today’s paper, or a wiring diagram for your 1984 Toyota Starlet. (We can help with that!)
We have resources for everyone, including kids and their parents, teens, seniors and newcomers. And we’re adding new content all the time – events and programs, recommended reads, research resources and more.
We've recently added an RSS feed to help you stay on top of what's happening at the library, with feeds for news, events, programs and recommended titles. If you're new to RSS, then our RSS information page can help you get started.
Our vision is a vibrant community where all people are informed, literate and entertained. We hope this website is an extension of that. If you can’t find what you need, please contact us. We welcome your feedback, and will do our best to help!
