New Library Grand Opening and Book Brigade
On March 28, 2026, more than 800 neighbors celebrated the new Larkspur Library’s grand opening with a memorable community Book Brigade. Participants formed a human chain stretching nearly half a mile, passing 500 books from the former downtown library to the new library at The Commons on Rose Lane. Organized by the Friends of Larkspur Library and fellow community partners, the celebration demonstrated that the new library is more than a building—it’s a testament to what our community can accomplish together.
What We Do
The Friends of Larkspur Library is a non-profit organization that raises funds to support many vital library needs, library programs, events, book collections, and library equipment. We strive to instill the love of reading and the thrill of learning in library patrons of all ages.
Who’s Larky
Larky is a big gentle yellow hippopotamus who loves books and kids. He was adopted as Larkspur Library’s mascot more than 50 years ago. Larkspur schoolchildren voted on his name. An important part of Larkspur town tradition, Larky comes to many town and library events. Be sure to say hello the next time you see him!
