I’m proud to share that the 18th location of the Palm Beach County Library System has opened.

Canyon Branch, located in the Canyon Town Center in Western Boynton, is a 33,000 sq ft facility with a beautiful plaza space, a drive-up service window, our largest meeting room seating 300 people, and the first maker space in the system.

Reporter Carolyn DiPaolo wrote a wonderful article about our opening day and the amenities of the building.

As well, local NPR reporter Wilkine Brutus visited the branch for a preview day and published an article about the library along with an interview with myself.

A project of this size cannot be done without a great team effort. Thank you to everyone who made this new location possible. This includes our Board of County Commissioners, County Administrator, the Library Advisory Board, and the Friends of the Library. Most of all, thank you to all County staff who helped with the project, especially my library employees. Everyone went above and beyond to make this happen.

I invite you to visit the new Canyon Branch to see it for yourself. It is open seven days a week and four evenings until 9 pm.
