About the Tukwila Library
The history of the Tukwila Library has a rich history dating back to 1945, when King County Library Services and the Foster PTA established a small community library. Over the decades, it expanded and relocated multiple times, including a dedicated building in 1967 and a larger Foster Library in 1996. The library moved to its current 10,000-square-foot location in April of 2017.
Designed by Perkins + Will, the building incorporates sustainable features like geothermal heating, a green roof, and carbon-negative timber construction. Whether you're here for the geocache, searching for your next great read, or simply looking to connect with others, the Tukwila Library welcomes you! 👋
