VIRL: Hornby Island Branch
The Hornby Island branch of Vancouver Island Regional Library sits in a picturesque forested setting at the New Horizons Centre, serving this small Gulf Island community since before its 2016 renovation. As a free public facility on an island popular with cyclists, it offers public computers and free WiFi — practical resources for a touring cyclist needing to check routes, communicate, or simply rest indoors. The branch is operated by Vancouver Island Regional Library, one of the largest public library systems in BC.
