The dedication for the new Buena Vista Branch Library and Abraham Lincoln Park was held on December 7, 2002. After the ribbon cutting, the community enjoyed an afternoon of entertainment, refreshments, and tours of the new facility. The new Buena Vista Branch Library was built for the future with 40 computers and 11 online public access computers. Other features included study carrels and enclosed study rooms. The children's area of the library was decorated with a magical forest theme with murals throughout.
