The Seattle Public Library updates this page regularly to keep you informed about any unplanned closures or schedule disruptions in our 27 locations across the city.
Capitol Hill Branch closed through April 23 for construction
The Capitol Hill Branch will be closed through Sunday, April 23, due to an ongoing construction project. We apologize for the inconvenience.
- During this project, we will replace the branch roof and install a new electric HVAC system, which is more reliable and climate-friendly.
- The book return will remain closed throughout the project.
- Holds will be extended through May 1.
- Patrons should talk to Library staff if they want their holds sent to another branch for pickup.
All other Library locations are operating on normal schedules.
Please visit this page or your branch webpage on spl.org before visiting to learn about any unanticipated closures or delays in opening.
