Celebrating our 70th Anniversary with 7 more hours

In celebration of the 70th anniversary of the Squamish Public Library, we are expanding our open hours. We know patrons want more opportunities to browse the collection, have quiet work and study spaces, and have a relaxing space to get away from the elements. As a result, we will be adding 7 open hours each week which includes later evenings Monday through Thursday.
