About Regina Public Library
Regina Public Library is an urban library system committed to providing community services, spaces, and technologies to inspire discovery, learning, and connection. We are an essential gateway for all people to advance themselves through literacy, lifelong learning, social engagement, and cultural enrichment.
Everyone is welcome at the library.
Ours is a democratic space, and we champion and uphold the principles of intellectual freedom, and the right to seek, receive, and share information and ideas.
We offer thousands of programs, art exhibitions, film screenings and cultural events each year, as well as access to the latest digital technology. We create safe and welcoming spaces where people feel free to study, work, meet with friends, or simply sit quietly with a favourite book.
Library collections are available to all residents of Regina, including materials from over 300 public library branches in the province, through the Saskatchewan Information and Library Services (SILS) Consortium. In addition to collections of books, audiobooks, films, and music in traditional and digital media, our customers can borrow a host of unique materials, such as musical instruments, birding backpacks, and park passes.
Regina Public Library locations received 1.4 million visits in 2025. The Regina community appreciates and understands the value of the public library and its commitment to a democratic and universal space that welcomes diversity and encourages sharing of knowledge and information.
The Impact of Regina Public Library
"[The library] gave me a new perspective. [They] provided wings for my children to be able to fly, dream big, and just go and immerse themselves in different things and learn new things."
-Parent, Regina Public Library
Regina Public Library took part in a first-of-its-kind national study in 2025 about the impact of urban libraries. Canadian Urban Libraries Council (CULC) led the national study to better understand the role and value of Canadian libraries in their communities. The study drew on data and lived experience from both library customers and non-customers.
