The Valley Park Branch is open. It remains open at the current site until late Fall 2019. When construction begins there, the branch moves to a temporary location at 1050 Paramount Drive, Unit #12, Stoney Creek. Stay tuned for details on the opening date of this temporary site. During the transition, a library materials drop box is available for members to return items at the 970 Paramount Dr. branch.

The new Valley Park Branch is expected to be complete by Fall 2021. Library members are invited to access library services and materials by visiting other area branch locations during construction:

• Turner Park Branch – 352 Rymal Rd. E., Hamilton
• Red Hill Branch – 695 Queenston Rd., Hamilton
• Sherwood Branch – 467 Upper Ottawa St., Hamilton

“We’re very excited to break ground on our new Valley Park Branch this Fall. This is a vibrant, growing community and this new building – with its beautiful reading courtyard and modern programming spaces – will be a gathering space for all to come together to discover, learn and share,” says Paul Takala, Chief Librarian, Hamilton Public Library.
