Community Supports

Stratford Public Library's commitment to your well-being stretches well beyond the confines of our shelves. We're also a place where you can find the resources, connections, and care that you need.

Snack Stop

Whether your study session's gone marathon, you forgot part of your lunch, or your budget is getting stretched by inflation, we've got you! SPL's Snack Stop stocks both snack foods and non-perishables that are free and available whenever the library is open. Please help yourself!

    End Period Poverty

    Everyone who menstruates deserves to have a safe, comfortable period. But, not everyone can afford the supplies they need. Since October 2023, the Huron-Perth Period Poverty Task Force has been stocking all library washrooms in Huron and Perth Counties with the supplies needed to get you through your day. If you can't find what you need, let us know, your feedback will help us improve!

    We want to learn if this is a service that people have been using. Please take this anonymous survey. All thoughts, comments, and ideas are welcome.
