What a gem! The San…read moreJuan Island Library way surpassed my hopes and expectations for a small rural library. Staff are friendly and helpful, there's a small fundraising area of used books where you can almost always find something interesting for a buck, parking is usually decent, the book selection is extensive and current, and there's a lot of community offerings like art classes, tai chi classes, a seed bank, and a walking group! Island residents are very lucky to have such a great resource.

Every tiny island should have a tiny little library. This one isn't as tiny as you would suspect,…read morebut it's just oozing with charm. I think my favorite part, truthfully, is the grounds. There's a flower-filled park and walkway from the road to the west, and a delightfully landscaped upper area surrounding the library itself. They also have a magazine dropoff so you can get rid of your old magazines here, which is kinda handy as well. It looks like there's a really good kid's section of books and plenty of books to fill the needs of the island, and I rather like the architecture of the building. Note that COVID has caused quite the commotion in the world of libraries, so you should probably call ahead to see if they have reopened, and what the protocol might be to get a book if you want one. I also am not sure about the requirements to check out books and get a membership.

Sometimes she will have some items on hold and we will pick those up too. They also have an area with books for sale, which we have perused on occasion just for light reading or looking for presents. The movie section is located just inside the front door and movies are shelved by category. I find this convenient if not familiar with the movie titles, it gives at least a genre to start the search for a good watch. There are self check-out and worker check-out options. We typically go the self check-out way. A returns slot is located outside the main entrance to the library. Parking is available in both a larger lot and in a few quick visit (15 minutes or less style thing) spots. The quick visit spots have less of an incline between then and the entrance of the library, which is helpful if anyone in the visiting party has difficulty with inclines.
