Welcome to the Peninsula Community Library

We’re so glad you’re here! The Peninsula Community Library is a place where stories are shared, ideas are discovered, and neighbors connect. Whether you’re looking for your next good read, a quiet spot to relax, or a familiar face to say hello to, you’ll find it here.

This is your space... for learning, growing, and feeling at home. We’re here to help you explore, create, and learn. Everyone is welcome, and there’s always something new to discover.
