The Calgary Public Library (CPL) is a distributed library system featuring 21 branch locations including the Central Library.[1] As of 2012, it is the second most used system in Canada (after the Toronto Public Library)[2] and the sixth most used library system in North America.[3] This is despite the fact that the Calgary Public Library has one of the lowest per capita funding in the country, receiving as little as half the money of other Canadian public libraries.
