Ladysmith

The land on which this library stands is the unceded territory of the Stz’uminus First Nation, whose relationships with the land continue to this day.

The Ladysmith library branch joined in the Vancouver Island Library system in 1937. Before that, it had a brief history as a public library, opening in 1935 with a collection of 800 volumes. The library branch moved to its current location on First Avenue in 1994.
