Toda City Library, Municipal library in Toda, Japan

Toda City Library is a municipal library in Toda offering collections of books, digital materials, and media formats for public access. The facility provides study areas and computer workstations where visitors can spend time reading or conducting research.

The library was established in 1982 as the city's first central knowledge resource facility for public use. This founding moment created a turning point for how residents could access educational materials and information.

The library's mascot is Mimichan, a scops owl, chosen because owls were long revered as gods of learning; a stuffed scops owl collected in the city was donated when the library opened in 1982. A stone owl statue by sculptor Akira Soraki stood on the third-floor exterior at first and was moved to ground level in the April 2020 renewal. The Kami-Toda branch holds the city's only manga collection.

Local residents can register for a library card by providing valid identification, granting access to borrow materials. Most items can be kept for approximately two weeks before they must be returned.

The library's mascot is Mimichan, a horned owl, chosen because owls were long revered as patrons of learning. A stone owl carved by sculptor Kūju Sora stood on the third-floor exterior at the 1982 opening and was moved to ground level in the April 2020 renewal. The owl motif came from a taxidermied specimen collected in the city and donated at opening.
