Nancy Tessman, the new executive director of the Fort Vancouver Regional Library District, said she is optimistic that the Washougal Community Library will open in a larger space. She was the main speaker at the July 26 meeting of the Friends of the Washougal Community Library. The Friends intend to pursue further planning and fund raising for a bigger library building, if there is community support.

As members of the Friends of the Washougal Community Library continue to support the idea of a new library, there are discussions regarding whether it would be beneficial to sign a lease at Washougal Town Square or wait to build.

Nancy Tessman, the new executive director of the Fort Vancouver Regional Library District, recently walked through one of the vacant spaces at Washougal Town Square.
