Colony High Branch Library

About Us:

The Ontario City Library Colony High Branch is located in the Colony High School and shares its facility with the high school library. The Branch Library opened to the public at this location on January 6, 2003. It is a popular materials center for the south Ontario community. Its collections include popular adult and children’s leisure reading as well as basic coverage of popular nonfiction subjects. Whether you want to read a mystery, work on your car or garden, add a deck, learn about diabetes, or any other topic, the Colony Branch Library probably has a book, DVD, or video on it. If not, you can order materials from the Main library and they will usually be available at the Branch by the next working day.
