Spanish Springs Library is located on the Pyramid Highway in Spanish Springs. An octagonal building with open spaces set off by a 64 foot ceiling over the atrium, comfortable seating and twenty-eight public access/Internet computers, it is truly a destination for the entire family. Features include a drive-through service point to pick up and drop off materials, and a 24-hour book return.

The Nell J. Redfield Foundation Young People's Library features a unique oversized stack of books at the entrance and a separate storytime room. Five of the twenty-eight public computers (including an adult station so parents and children can work side by side) and a family restroom complete the area as a family friendly place. 

The teen zone is a comfortable place with six of the twenty-eight public access computers and an area for group study and projects.  

E.L. Cord community meeting rooms provide spaces for groups to meet and groups may stay after the library is closed.

Self-serve features include express check-out, the ability to pick up holds, automated computer sign-ups, and printing. Offering wireless internet access and printing from your laptop, laptop locks, a public fax machine to local and toll-free numbers, a flatbed scanner for public use, and study rooms, the library is truly a destination for the whole family. 

Citizens may request exam proctoring at the Spanish Springs Library. 

The atmosphere is enhanced by the cozy fireplace and comfortable seating throughout the building.

As part of the Washoe County Library system, users have access to a wide range of books, music, movies, current newspapers, popular magazines, books on tape and CD, and much, much more. 

With a distinct Native American design, the décor features petroglyphs from local caves and rocks and a unique carpet treatment featuring a traditional Paiute basket weave pattern in the atrium. 

The library strives to meet the recreational and educational needs of the community.
