==Branches==
The Georgetown Branch is part of the Halton Hills Library and Cultural Center, sharing space with the John Elliott Theatre and The Helson Gallery. It began in 1913 in what was formerly the Congregational Church. A significant renovation and expansion of the branch began in late 2011, which increased the size of the library and shared spaces from 12,000 to 34,400 square feet. The newly renovated building opened in January 2013 with features that included a new teen lounge area, a seniors space including fireside lounge, a dedicated Local History Room, permanent space for Community Partners, four quiet study rooms, 17 Internet stations, wireless Internet access throughout the facility and self-serve checkout stations located throughout the library. Green initiatives for the building such as geothermal heating and cooling systems and a green roof earned the space LEED Silver certification awarded in 2014.
The Acton Branch was a stand-alone facility of 3,074 square feet (285.6 m2), built in 1967 as a Centennial project. A new facility of 9,000 square feet (840 m2) was built just east of the existing branch, made possible through an Infrastructure Stimulus Fund grant of $2.3M, with the remaining 1/3 of the cost being covered by the Town of Halton Hills. The new Acton Branch was completed on February 26, 2011 and features a large children’s program room, a Terraced Green for outdoor programs, a teen lounge area and adult lounge sharing a double-sided fireplace, two small meeting/study rooms, a large multi-purpose room for adult programs and meetings, 11 Internet stations, wireless Internet access throughout the facility, and self-serve checkout stations. Geothermal heating and cooling systems, use of natural light and other green initiatives earned the building LEED Gold certification awarded in 2012.
