[Publib] Coffee and Shopping at your local library

[mand02 at look.ca]

Hello all.  I live in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The Richmond
Public Library has coffee available on their main floor at the Brighouse
Branch.  Phone: 604-231-6412 Web: www.yourlibrary.ca  I understand they
won an award for most contemporary and innovative library concept and
layout.

At the Vancouver Public Library (Central Branch) they have a store with
souvenirs in their library.  They have had it for a number of years and it
seems to be very viable.  Phone: 604-331-4000 (Administration, reception)
 Web: www.vpl.ca


To add to this, the Fraser Valley Regional Library, Ladner Pioneer Library
(Branch) had a coffee shop inside the entrance of their branch.  They also
have local art displayed there.  They regretably closed the coffee shop
but they still display art that you can buy (At least I believe so, I
haven't been there for a year) Phone: 604-946-6215 Web: www.fvrl.bc.ca

I hope this is helpful.
