Almonte branch now has a self check-out station! Super easy to use and super useful when the library is extra busy (weekends!) at the service desk. All you need is your library card in-hand!

With this system, printed check-out receipts are not available, but you can choose to receive your date due receipt via email (sender will be Meescan).


Fossil tales, fossil information, community fossil art! View & learn at the Almonte branch library’s Corridor art gallery! This exhibit runs until 3 Aug. and is in partnership with Ernesto Delgado of the Eastern Ontario Natural History Society / Société Paleontologique d’Ottawa. Also – there’s a challenge to complete & a ballot to fill out to join the fun.


MMPL staff suggest a selection of great, adult, summer reads – more than in the photo! Here’s a few of our latest, favourite titles: browse the list and reserve. Many are available in ebook and e-Audio too.
