Spend a rainy day at Haines Borough Public Library. This is Haines’ only public library facility, originally opened in 1928 by the Haines Women’s Club at a location at the Alaska Steamship Office. After several location moves, the current library facility was constructed in 2003, designed by architectural firm Minch Ritter Voelkers. The five-star library was the 2005 recipient of Library Journal’s award for the Best Small Library in America. It offers library cards for Haines area residents and visitors, along with free access to public computers and wireless internet service. Regional maps are also available for use and reproduction, including maps of nearby Canadian provinces and marine areas.
