About our partner

Brampton Public Library is a vital hub in southwestern Ontario, proudly serving a diverse community of approximately 700,000 residents. Dedicated to fostering literacy, learning, and engagement, they provide a wide range of resources, programs, and events that enrich the lives of its patrons. Whether it’s helping readers discover their next great book, hosting community events, or offering digital services, Brampton Public Library is committed to making knowledge and entertainment accessible to all.

About the project

In March 2024, Brampton Public Library set out to enhance its online presence with a fresh, modern website that would elevate the experience for its visitors. They needed a digital space that not only reflected their community-focused values but also provided seamless access to their vast catalogue and services. After a thorough selection process, the Library partnered with Sandbox Software in May 2024 to bring this vision to life through expert website design and development.

Project drivers

Brampton Public Library wanted a website that was more than just a digital brochure. They aimed to:

  • Improve accessibility and user experience for all visitors.
  • Streamline navigation, making it easy for users of all ages to find relevant content.
  • Enhance search functionality by integrating their library catalogue and programs.
  • Provide a responsive design that worked seamlessly across all devices.
  • Ensure ongoing reliability through hosting and maintenance services.

What we accomplished

After months of collaboration, research, and development, Sandbox Software successfully launched Brampton Public Library’s new website in November 2024. Designed with accessibility and usability at its core, the revamped site offers a streamlined interface, helping visitors easily discover books, programs, and events. The integration with their catalogue system ensures that patrons can browse collections effortlessly, while dedicated sections for different age groups guide users to tailored content. Now, with an intuitive, engaging, and responsive website, the Brampton community can connect with their library like never before.

With this successful collaboration, Brampton Public Library now has a website that truly reflects its commitment to literacy, learning, and community engagement. The new platform ensures that patrons can seamlessly connect with the library’s vast resources, making it easier than ever to find their next book, event, or learning opportunity.
