We acknowledge with gratitude and respect that the name Coquitlam was derived from the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ (Hunquminum) word kʷikʷəƛ̓əm (Kwikwetlem) meaning “Red Fish Up the River”. The Coquitlam Public Library is honoured to be located on the kʷikʷəƛ̓əm traditional, ancestral and unceded lands, including those parts that were historically shared with the q̓ic̓ əy ̓ (Katzie), and other Coast Salish Peoples.
