Get the latest on the interim Lakewood Pierce County Library
The Lakewood Pierce County Library has secured a property for an interim library location at 10202 Gravelly Lake Dr. S.W., a few blocks north of the current Lakewood Library. If the construction plan holds, we project to open the interim library in August.
We acknowledge it has been a long haul to open the interim library. We realize this has been a hardship on the community and a disruption in full library services. We are very sorry it has taken far too long to open.
The 7,500-square-foot interim library will:
- Provide learning resources and classes for all ages.
- Deliver books, materials, and events for enjoyment.
- Offer welcoming places and spaces for diverse communities to connect.
- Include access to more computers than other similar-sized libraries in the Library System.
The full-service, multi-generational library will be a center for learning and enjoyment, and serving the Lakewood community, seven days a week.
The interim library will be a destination for children and families providing space to grow and nurture a love of reading with literacy-rich activities.
Please note, the timeline is tentative and could be impacted by supply chain challenges, contractor availability and agency building requirements.
