Our library collection is currently located in the local history section at the Four Corners Branch of the Brampton Public Library, 65 Queen Street East (near the Peel Archives), Brampton, Ontario, phone 905-793-4636. It contains over 1300 items, most of which cover the counties of Halton and Peel. In addition, there are how-to books, periodicals, and books containing information relating to other locations in Canada, the U.S., the U.K., and Ireland.
The collection has been catalogued to library standards and integrated with that of the Brampton Public Library's on-line catalogue system. To search for our materials, please consult the library's website or use this direct search link.
When you visit the library, go to the second floor and ask at the reference desk for the item you wish by its call number and title. In order to access items you must present either your OGS membership card, your Brampton library card, or your driver's license. Items may not be removed from the local history reference area of the library and are not available through interlibrary loan.
The Halton-Peel Branch gratefully acknowledges the receipt of a grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation which allowed the branch to catalogue its library collection. The material is now more accessible to the general public, who can use it to learn more about their community and family history. The Trillium Foundation is an agency of the Government of Ontario.
