The Orillia Public Library will continue Curbside Pickup Services as the Province of Ontario moves through Step 1. During this time the Library building will remain closed to the public. We are preparing to welcome customers back into the Library in Step 2 and at the present time anticipate our re-opening date will occur in early July.
The Curbside Pickup Door is located at the Mississaga Street entrance. An accessible walkway from the West Street Parking Lot is located to the right of the Opera House. There are also parking spaces available on Andrew Street. If you park on Mississaga Street, please ensure that you do not park or stop in the bus loading zone. .

Frequently Asked Questions
| When are my borrowed items due? |
| Items signed will follow our usual loan periods. You may return your items through the Andrew Street book drop 24/7. |
| Is it safe to borrow Library materials? |
|
As of Friday, June 11, in accordance with government and public health guidelines, we are removing the 24 hour quarantine period for returned library materials. Knowledge about routes of transmission for COVID-19 has evolved greatly over the last year and it is now considered unlikely that the virus will remain active on surfaces in real-world conditions. Please don't borrow library materials if you are feeling unwell or if any member of your household is sick or in isolation. |
| What if I need help placing holds or need help picking books? |
| If you need help selecting items and placing holds, please email us or call 705-325-2556 for assistance. If you need help selecting children or teen materials, please email the Family Department or call 705-325-2559. |
| Can I still place interlibrary loan requests while the building is closed? |
| Yes, please email us or call 705-325-2556 if you would like to request an item from another public library in Ontario. |
