San Rafael is planning a new Library & Community Center at Albert Park — and we want to hear from you!
Approved by voters in 2024, this exciting project will create a welcoming space for learning, recreation, creativity, and community connection for generations to come.
As planning gets underway, we’re asking community members to help shape the future of the facility. What programs, spaces, and features are most important to you? What would make this a place you and your family would love to visit?
We’ve created a short 5–7-minute survey to gather your ideas and priorities. Whether you live, work, learn, or spend time in San Rafael, your feedback matters.
Together, we can create a community space that reflects the needs, values, and vision of San Rafael today and into the future.
El pasado 30 de abril celebramos el Día de los Niños y el Día del Libro con juegos, libros, actividades, un divertido show de magia y Zumba para los chiquitines. Las familias disfrutaron de una tarde llena de diversión, aprendizaje y el vínculo con la comunidad fomentando la lectura y la imaginación entre nuestros niños.
El evento fue organizado por la Biblioteca Pública de San Rafael y fue posible gracias a la colaboración de varias agencias y organizaciones, tales como Book Exchange of Marin, the Learning Bus, Marin County Free Library, Parent Services Project, One Tam and Bay Area Discovery Museum.
Estamos muy agradecidos con todos los voluntarios, participantes y colaboradores quienes hicieron posible este maravilloso evento comunitario.
