It has been and continues to be the cultural center for Puerto Vallarta, offering film screenings, concerts, art exhibits, book signings, poetry readings, literary clubs, plays, dance festivals and performances, special events, and a variety of workshops and classes for adults and children.

Although there are small charges for the above cultural events and programs, all library services are free, which include membership card, borrowing of books (more than 35,000 books in English and in Spanish), use of computers with internet connection, and the library´s reading clubs.

The library also provides special training for performing artists and serves as a meeting place for community volunteer groups and special needs groups.  

Privately funded, the library is open to the public, Monday to Friday from 10:00 am to 9:00 pm and on Saturday from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.
