Library Overview

West Regional Library is the newest of the six regional libraries in the Wake County public library system and the second largest. The library is the result of the 2003 bond referendum expansion of the Wake County Public Libraries. Opened in September 2006 as part of Cary's Carpenter Village development, West Regional Library provides much-needed services to the rapidly expanding western half of Wake County, which includes the Cary, Morrisville and Apex communities.

West Regional Library is a neighborhood-friendly place. The library is situated with a view to a community lake and with easy access to nearby walking and biking trails. The 30,000-square-foot facility features a unique U-shaped design, with Youth Services in one wing and Adult Services in the other. Library visitors enter via a courtyard into the central "marketplace" with the newest books, comfortable seating and easy access to a wide variety of information services. 
 
Staff are available to assist you at multiple service desks throughout the library. Both the Youth and Adult sections of the library feature numerous computers for accessing the library's catalog, reference resources, and the Internet. Library customers may also bring in their laptops to take advantage of the free wi-fi. Other library features include self-checkouts, two group study rooms, a conference room, a multi-purpose room for storytimes and special events, a space just for teens, and a drive-up book drop.

We look forward to serving you at the West Regional Library.
