With a soft opening last week, Sooke residents are taking their first, long-awaited steps among the shelves of the new Vancouver Island Regional Library.

The $7.5-million building, located on Wadams Way, opened its doors to the public on Feb. 21, but it will have a grand opening near the end of March.

Some work is still ongoing within the building, including adding finishing touches to some of the multipurpose rooms.
