Belfair, WA – The North Mason Timberland Library will temporarily close beginning Tuesday February 3, 2026, for a much-anticipated interior refresh. The last day the library will be open to the public prior to the closure is Saturday, January 31.

Timberland Regional Library is evaluating options for temporary services during the closure at a nearby location. Updates will be shared as plans are finalized.

Potential services may include:

• A small browsing collection

• Technology access (computer use, printing, faxing)

• Staff assistance

“This refresh will create a more welcoming space for the community,” said Annie Bowers, Regional Manager. “We’re grateful for the community’s patience during the closure and look forward to sharing updates as the work progresses and welcoming everyone back in the Spring.”
