Mississauga’s newly-renovated library was damaged Wednesday after a fire that started outside its front doors, emergency officials said.
Mississauga Fire raced to the scene just after 4 a.m., and said the heat of the fire broke the building’s glass doors.
Inside, sprinklers kept the fire from spreading. Nobody was injured.
However, Mississauga Fire Platoon Chief Ryan Baird said there’s now smoke and water damage inside the building. It’s still unclear what caused the fire but investigators are on scene.
The Hazel McCallion Central Library is the city’s biggest and recently reopened after major renovations to the more than 30-year-old building.
