Freedom To Read 2026

Some of the most controversial books in history are now regarded as classics. Pop in during our Freedom to Read (FTR) week from February 22 to 28 and explore our book display, grab a custom button, or sign up for a new Freedom to Read SPL library card. 

We remain a strong advocate for inclusivity in our reading choices. This annual event encourages Canadians to think about and reaffirm their commitment to intellectual freedom. For more information visit https://www.freedomtoread.ca/
