The Juneau Public Libraries are the open door to exploration and lifelong learning. Library staff offices are located at the downtown branch.
The Juneau Public Libraries are a Department of the City and Borough of Juneau (www.juneau.org). We have three branches: the downtown Juneau Public Library (located atop the parking garage on the waterfront), the Mendenhall Valley Public Library (located at 3025 Dimond Park Loop) and the Douglas Public Library (located in the Douglas Community Building, a shared facility with the Fire Department). The Juneau Public Libraries are part of the Joint Library consortium, including the three Juneau Public Libraries, the Anchorage Public Libraries, all University of Alaska libraries, the Alaska State Library, the Sealaska Heritage Institute, and more. A card obtained at any one of these facilities will allow you to check out or return materials at all facilities. (The Sealaska Heritage Institute is a non-circulating research library.) Comments posted to this page will be monitored. The CBJ reserves the right to remove inappropriate comments including those that have obscene language or sexual content, threaten or defame any person or organization, violate the legal ownership interest of another party, support or oppose political candidates or ballot propositions, promote illegal activity, promote commercial services or products or are not topically related to the particular posting.

Attention Libby users! 🎧📚
Beginning on Wednesday, October 7, patrons will be required to enter their library card number and PIN to access the Alaska Digital Library. This added step was initiated by Libby as a security measure for patron accounts.
If you need help remembering your PIN, please call or visit the library. When calling, be prepared to provide your name and two identifiers to verify your account. 📞🚶🏻♀️
