Parking at the Bellingham Public Library

Attending an event at the field?  Please do not park at the library!
The library parking lot is for library parking ONLY during library hours and library events.  Those attending events on the field should park at the middle or high school parking lots.

If you are parked in the lot and not in the library, we may call the police to ticket or tow, at their discretion.  This applies even if you arrive to park when the library is closed and the library opens after your arrival.  It also applies if you were at the library then went to an event at the field. 

The library has many very busy times and our lot must be available for library patrons.

Attending a meeting or non-library event at the library? 
Please park in either the overflow lot or on the access road to the field as the front of the library parking lot is reserved for library patrons doing traditional library business. 

Please only park in designated spaces!
Remember, if spaces are available in the library lot, overflow lot, or along the access road, no vehicle should be parked in the library lot in an area that is not a designated parking space.  Those vehicles will be subject to ticketing or towing at the discretion of the police.

Since we expanded the lot in 2015 there have been only a handful of incidents where there were more cars attending library events than there are spaces.
