Bomb Shelter Tour

Celebrate 60 Years of the Downtown Reno Library!

To mark the 60th anniversary of the Downtown Reno Library, we’re inviting the community to explore one of our best-kept secrets — the library’s historic bomb shelter.

For a limited time, we’ll be offering public guided tours that give visitors a rare behind-the-scenes look at this unique space and its place in local history. Whether you’re a longtime library supporter or a first-time visitor, this is a special opportunity to discover a hidden part of the library you may never have seen before.

Please note:

  • The bomb shelter is not ADA accessible and requires navigating stairs and tight spaces.

  • Participants must be 18 years or older to participate.

  • A waiver of liability must be signed on site prior to the tour.
