The newly renovated St. Vital Library is now open!
It’s located at 6 Fermor Avenue and features an upgraded entrance, washroom additions, improved parking, accessible shelving and collections layout, and a 24-hour book return.
They’ve also added new furniture, flooring, roof, and skylights. The basement has been overhauled and now includes modern amenities, with four washrooms and a new tutorial room.
The library also features an indoor Family Literacy Playground to assist in developing early literacy skills of young children.
“It’s great to see St. Vital Library back in the business of building healthy, family friendly communities,” said Mayor Brian Bowman. “These renovations and upgrades continue the significant investments in rebuilding libraries across Winnipeg, and it’s great that today we get to reopen the St. Vital Library providing an updated facility for people to meet, learn, grow, and build community.”
