Vancouver Public Library[edit]

The Carnegie Library at Main and Hastings in Vancouver does in fact still contain a public library in the basement as one of the services of the Carnegie Community Centre (not "Carnegie Arts Centre" as suggested in the table currently) - I've been there. According to the History of the Vancouver Public Library it's actually still a branch of the Vancouver Public Library system. I'd suggest this means it is still operating as a library and should be coloured yellow ("Building still operating as a library"), not pink ("Building standing, but now serving another purpose"). --MarkAH (talk) 09:56, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
