Library service at the Bracebridge Public Library began in1908 when the original Carnegie building was constructed. The 2,800 sq. foot Muskoka stone structure was expanded to 8,400 sq. feet in 1984 with an addition that maintained the heritage character of the building while allowing for improved service and collection space. The Library will mark 100 years of service to the community during its centennial in 2008. In 1998, Bracebridge Public Library opened a Branch Library at the Fenbrook Medium Security Institution. It serves the reading and information needs of the inmates and staff, mirroring community library services and standards.

The Township of Brock is located on the east shore of Lake Simcoe approximately 1.5 hours northeast of Toronto. The municipality presents three distinct urban areas, numerous hamlets, and beautiful countryside. While agriculture is our largest employer, a full range of commercial and industrial businesses are located within the urban areas of Beaverton, Cannington, and Sunderland. The Township's location on Lake Simcoe and the Trent-Severn Waterway make it a popular destination for tourists - both summer and winter. The municipality was named for General Sir Isaac Brock, a young soldier who was shot by the Americans as he led his soldiers into battle attempting to prevent the Americans from establishing a landing at Queenston Heights during the War of 1812.
