Nokomis Library

Nokomis Library is a two-story building with a limestone exterior located in the Keewaydin neighborhood. It features comfortable reading areas, meeting rooms, and a dedicated section for children's materials and programs.

The library was built in 1968 as a replacement facility for the neighborhood. It underwent a major renovation in 2011 that expanded and updated its spaces.

The library connects with its neighborhood through Spanish language materials and regular programs supporting families and young students. Its seed library encourages visitors to try growing vegetables and flowers at home.

The library is accessible during standard opening hours and offers free Wi-Fi and computer workstations throughout the building. Visitors can easily borrow materials or attend programs without advance planning.

A large sculptural artwork called Wind and Water Chime adorns the library and was specially restored to enhance the building. The piece combines water, movement, and sound in unexpected ways that visitors often discover during their visit.
