Discover Greenwood Heritage Library.
Whether you're looking for your next great read, a quiet place to study or work, a space to connect with neighbours, or a fun destination for the whole family, Greenwood Heritage Library is here for you.
Visitors can browse and borrow books and other library materials, enjoy comfortable reading and study spaces, and take advantage of welcoming community gathering spaces.
While the library is fully open for borrowing and everyday use, new collections, programs, services, and amenities will continue to be introduced over the coming months. We look forward to welcoming you back again and again as the branch continues to grow and become a vibrant community destination.
