History

Byron Branch Library provides service to people living in Byron, River Bend, parts of Hyde Park and Oakridge and many residents in Middlesex County such as Komoka, Kilworth and Strathroy.

 To meet your needs, we partner with the Middlesex-London Health Unit, Ontario Early Years Centre, St. Leonard’s Society, Investing in Children and the City of London. Byron Branch has worked for the past seven years with St. Thomas Aquinas and Oakridge secondary schools to offer a job co-op program for students in their developmental programs. We also work with the London Fire Department by managing their community room.
