Newcomers

Welcome to Mississauga!

Settling in a new country is exciting and rewarding; it can also be challenging. The City of Mississauga offers many opportunities to newcomers and the Library is a great place to start. The library is free for anyone living, working, studying or who owns property in Mississauga. Take home books, DVDs, music and much more for learning and entertainment. Every library branch has free Internet computers with Microsoft Office for you to use. Please contact the library if you have any questions.
