Vancouver Community Library, Public library in downtown Vancouver, United States.
Vancouver Community Library is a modern downtown building with extensive glass walls that fill the reading spaces with natural light. The facility spans multiple floors and organizes different zones for reading, studying, and working.
The library continues a tradition that started in 1833 when the Hudson's Bay Company established the first circulating library in the Pacific Northwest. This early legacy shows how long public book collections have existed in this region.
The facility presents rotating exhibitions, hosts multicultural events, and maintains collections reflecting diverse community perspectives through its programming.
The building offers free two-hour parking on weekdays from 8 am to 6 pm, with unlimited free parking in the evenings and on weekends. Visitors should expect longer parking restrictions outside these hours or use alternative parking options.
The facility houses a seed library where visitors can borrow seeds for free to grow vegetables, herbs, and flowers in private gardens. This collection offers an unusual way for people to start or expand their gardening projects.
