The Vashon Library has been in the center of town for generations as a stimulating place for learning and entertainment.

It started with the Vashon Island Women’s Club in 1911 providing books and services to enhance the learning experience for our citizens and their children.

What happened to the third option for the Vashon library to be built anew just west of the Napa store? The branch would remain inside the town core, conveniently close to the Post Office, and offering a chance to revitalize nearby Vashon Plaza. Moving to K2 will only contribute to further sprawl and increased traffic congestion along Vashon Highway; tearing down and building a new branch at its present location would inconvenience patrons during construction and seems to be objectionable to the King County Library System.
