Fire Safety Storytime
with visit from a Fire Truck!
Tuesday, July 08
11:00am - 12:00pm
Join us for this special fire safety storytime and enjoy a visit from our community helpers from the Oakville Fire Department!
Stop by the library for a special storytime, led by a member of the Oakville Fire Department. It is a great opportunity for your little one to learn about fire safety, hear a story read by a fire fighter, meet Blaze the dragon, and then head outside for a demonstration of how the fire fighters put on their gear, see the fire truck up close and take a quick tour of the cab.
Oakville Public Library is dedicated to the principles of Every Child Ready to Read, an initiative to help parents and caregivers develop early literacy skills in children from birth to age five.
This program is ticketed. Tickets are required, limited, and vary by branch. Tickets will be distributed 15min prior to program start.

Central Branch
Central Branch is the largest of Oakville Public Library’s seven locations. Located in downtown Oakville, it spans three floors of adult and children’s collections, the local and family history collections in the Oakville Room, with spacious meeting and study spaces. Central Branch also serves as the library’s administrative headquarters and shares space with Oakville Galleries. Just steps from Sixteen Mile Creek and Lake Ontario, the branch offers scenic views and a welcoming environment for learning and community connection. With a new facility slated for 2028, the new Central Branch is set to become a landmark building for Downtown Oakville. Guided by community insight, the redesigned library branch will offer flexible and accessible spaces that celebrate Oakville’s history, support lifelong learning, and promote community connections.
