Learn about the dangers of bear spray.
Parents, caregivers, youth, educators and community leaders: learn about the dangers of bear spray, which, when used on a person, becomes a weapon — and using it is a criminal offence with serious and lasting consequences. Bear spray can be easily ordered online or purchased locally and is designed to stop an animal attack in the wilderness. Presented in partnership with the Hamilton Police Service Community Engagement Team.

The first Hamilton Public Library building opened on September 16, 1890 by the Earl and Countess of Aberdeen on the north side of Main Street West. In 1913, a new main library opened. This building was replaced in 1980 by Central Library, at the current location on York Boulevard.
In 2010, Central Library re-opened after approximately 18 months of renovations. Central Library opened with a newly revitalized first floor, which includes a Community Living Room that takes advantage of natural light. The Ontario Library Association honoured Central in 2012 with an Architectural and Design Transformation award.
