Ontario City Library located in the Civic Center Plaza.


Information and knowledge resources are fundamental for the residents of Ontario to live healthy and prosperous lives. Ontario’s libraries offer free access to collections of books and other media, computers and the Internet, a range of programs and resources, making them key focal points in the community. Ontario has an ambitious, well-established and functional library program that addresses a broad range of ages, abilities, interests, cultural backgrounds and income levels.

Goal
SR4 City libraries that connect community members of all ages and abilities to a broad range of programs, communication and informational resources.
