Fernie Heritage Library
The Fernie Heritage Library is a welcoming three-storey public facility in downtown Fernie, housing fiction, non-fiction, reference collections, and a Tech Hub with fabrication, audio, and media creation equipment. Beside the building is a beautifully maintained garden open to the public 24 hours a day, complete with picnic tables and bike racks — a genuinely pleasant rest stop for cyclists passing through the Elk Valley. Membership and programming are free, and the library hosts community programs ranging from literacy support to a volunteer income tax clinic.
