A Fresh New Look Has Arrived at Ottawa Public Library!

Jan 29, 2026 | News Updates

We’re excited to share that OPL’s new brand has officially launched! 🎈
On January 27, branches across the city celebrated this milestone with warm, in-branch welcomes—and many of you may have already spotted what’s new.

On launch day, visitors to OPL branches were among the first to experience the refreshed look and feel. Celebrations included:

  • first look at OPL’s new visual identity, both in branches and online

  • Free donuts and tote bags (while supplies lasted 🍩👜)

  • Brand-new Ottawa Public Library cards featuring the updated design

It was a joyful, community-focused moment, and Staff loved welcoming residents to discover this new chapter.
