The Wasaga Beach Public Library is a public library that serves Wasaga Beach, Ontario in Canada. It is governed by a board of trustees appointed by the town council of Wasaga Beach. The chief librarian is Pamela Pal, and the Canadian library symbol is OWAB.[1]

The collection includes adult and junior fiction and non-fiction books, large-print books, audiobooks, e-books, DVDs, and picture books. The library also has accessibility features, including large-print keyboards and screen magnification software. The library also operates a Books on Wheels program.[2]

The original library was a 1,754 square feet (163 m2) building built in 1972. It was replaced by a 4,500 square feet (418 m2) building in 1994. In 2019, construction of a third 17,252 square foot (1,603 m2) library was announced by the town, as part of joint facility which included a new twin-pad hockey arena. The project broke ground in September 2021, and was expected to be completed in the summer of 2023.[3][4] The new combined library/arena complex opened on January 27, 2024 (six months later than anticipated), with free public skating on the hockey rinks.[5] The complex sits on the site of the former Wasaga Waterworld, a waterpark that operated from 1982 to 2007.
