Take a look at our New Library Building Design

New & Notable 

  • New Bookcarts
  • Thanks to the Salt Spring Island Foundation for their grant for new equipment for the library. The new bookcarts make it easier to shelve books in the smaller temporary library, and children who come for Storytime love the new rug in the Library Annex. We look forward to moving them into the new library this fall.

  • StoryTime Returns!
  • Start the New Year with fun at the Library with StoryTime.  StoryTime will be in the Library Annex, 108 Jackson Avenue.  Flags will be flying outside the Library Annex door during StoryTime to help you find us. Click here for more info and for the schedule.

  • Library Now Open at Temporary Site
  • Find us at the temporary library at 118 Jackson Avenue (beside Co-op gas station) during regular hours Monday - Saturday 10am -5pm. Handicapped and other parking  is available at the top of the driveway, and limited parking is also available at the bottom of the driveway and on Jackson Ave.

    The new Salt Spring Island Public Library building, which will serve the community for decades to come, combines advanced technology, new low carbon energy management concepts, and a comfortable, efficient and unique artistic design. This building will set a new “sustainability standard” for the Gulf Islands consistent with a commitment to responsible environmental stewardship.
