Calgary Public Library is the second largest library system in Canada. Calgary's community libraries offer great books, technology, and innovative services, as well as hundreds for programs for all ages. Calgarians are able to access this amazing range of resources from 21 libraries, including the iconic Central Library. Everything we do and every resource we offer helps create the best public library for the world.

Calgary Public Library is leading the way for innovative library services responsive to the informational, educational and recreational needs of Calgarians.

Volunteering at the Library means helping Calgary’s youngest citizens build learning skills, making stories come to life for little ones, delivering library materials to seniors, helping patrons explore computer technology, and much more. It means developing new skills, sharing your love of reading and libraries with others, and making new friends.
