Powell River Public Library

Nice library. Apart from the fact that the corrupt mayor gave his own family the contract to build it. Conflict of interest much? Also the exit/entry beside the shell gas station that was once an essential part of the plaza to enter or exit has been blocked off with a huge curb/sidewalk in front of the library. A feeble attempt to make the outside look more hospitable. This construction of these barriers really impedes traffic and makes driving around the lot extremly difficult, as its often packed because of all the stores within the plaza. Not liking some of the hours of operation. Classic Powell River move. Inconsistent. Open late and close early. A huge fail in my opinion. 9am seems more appropriate to open. I have to say I'm in disbelief they open at 1pm on Sundays. Why bother at all?

Pleasent atmosphere with some great learning opportunities, for both kids and adults. Decent book selection. Cafe, comfy chairs are a nice touch. A little louder than I'd like a library but nothing too distracting.

Great place for our daughter to enjoy story time and songs with other kids

Really good coffee shop in the library and a beautiful bright open space. Well done library people!

Great new facility!
