Kōchi Municipal Library, Municipal library in Otepia, Kōchi, Japan.

Kōchi Municipal Library is a public library within the Otepia complex, distributed across multiple floors with reading areas, study spaces, and work zones throughout. The building houses lending counters, internet-connected computer terminals, and dedicated sections for children's materials and research resources.

The library was established in September 1949, marking a turning point for public education access in the city following World War II. This founding was part of broader efforts to make knowledge resources accessible to the community.

The library's publishing arm produced reference works on the prefecture, among them the 1970 Kochi Prefecture Biographical Dictionary, a 1979 volume on Tosa Buddhist statues, a 1980 prefectural history dictionary and a 2008 collection of Tosa dialect. A children's science library opened in 1981 with insect and other specimens, and a Braille library was attached in 1967.

The library is located within the Otepia complex, where visitors can borrow materials and connect with other cultural facilities under one roof. Access to different collections is well organized, making it easy for both families and researchers to find what they need.

The library shares the Otepia building with other cultural facilities, bringing together books and other art forms in one location. This combination allows visitors to move between literary and other creative resources during a single visit.
