The Vancouver Island Regional Library(VIRL) is the fourth-largest library system in British Columbia.
 It serves more than 430,000 people on Vancouver Island, Haida Gwaii (formerly Queen Charlotte Islands) and the Central Coast (Bella Coola) through 38 branch libraries and a books-by-mail service.
 Administrative offices are located in Nanaimo.
 Vancouver Island Regional Library opened its doors in 1936 as the Vancouver Island Union Library; it was the second regional library in North America.
Vancouver Island is in the northeastern Pacific Ocean, just off the coast of Canada.
 It is part of the Canadian province of British Columbia.
 The island is 460 km in length, 100 km in width at its widest point, and 32134 km2 in area.
 It is the largest island on the West Coast of North America.
The Esowista Peninsula is a peninsula in the Clayoquot Sound region of the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.
 The name was adopted in 1934 in reference to Esowista Indian Reserve No. 3.
 The name originally applied to the neck of land between Templar Channel and Browning Passage, centred at to the whole neck of land from Grice Bay, Long Beach and Tofino.
 It was originally charted as Low Peninsula by the Royal Navy in 1860.
 Much of the peninsula is within the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve.
The Leech River Fault extends across the southern tip of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, creating the distinctively straight, narrow, and steep-sided valley occupied by Loss Creek and two reservoirs that runs from Sombrio Point (southeast of Port Renfrew) due east to the Leech River, and then turns southeast to run past Victoria.
 It is a thrust fault that marks the northernmost exposure of the Crescent terrane (part of Siletzia), where basalt of the Metchosin Igneous Complex (correlative with the Crescent Formation on the Olympic Peninsula) is dragged under Vancouver Island by the subducting Juan de Fuca Plate.
 About ten kilometers north the nearly parallel "San Juan Fault" marks the southern limit of rock of the Wrangellia terrane, which underlies most of Vancouver Island.
 Between these two northeast-dipping thrust faults are the "Leech River Complex" and (near Port Renfrew, but also outcrops near Victoria) the "Pandora Peak Unit".
 These, along with the "Pacific Rim Complex" further up the coast, are remnants of the "Pacific Rim terrane" which was crushed between Wrangellia and Siletzia.
 The contact between the bottom of Wrangellia and the top of the subducted PRT continues northwest along the coast as the "West Coast Fault", and southeast towards Victoria as the "Survey Mountain Fault".
 The Leach River Fault (LRF) extends off-shore towards Cape Flattery, where the Crescent—Pacific Rim contact continues northwest as the "Tofino Fault" (TF).

Templar Channel is a channel in the Clayoquot Sound region of the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, lying between Lennard Island and Wickaninnish Island just northwest of the town of Tofino.
Quadra Island is an island off the eastern coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, part of the Discovery Islands located within the Strathcona Regional District.
 Quadra Island is about 35 km from its northernmost point to its southernmost point.
 The island at its narrowest point, on its southern peninsula, is less than 2 km wide, and at its widest point, about 15 km wide.
 In area Quadra island comprises about 310 km2 .
 The population of island and surrounding mainland inlets, as of the 2006 federal census (excluding First Nations Reserves, tallied separately), was 2,472, down from the 2001 federal census count of 2,548.
 In 1903 it was named after the Spanish navigator Juan Francisco de la Bodega y Quadra, who explored and settled the Vancouver Island area in the late 18th century.
 It is separated from Vancouver Island by Discovery Passage, and from Cortes Island, and is linked to that island by a ferry from Heriot Bay on its eastern shore.
 The island has many beaches, trails, lakes, and parks.
 Main Lake Provincial Park is located on the northern part of the island, and Rebecca Spit Marine Provincial Park is on the eastern shore, near Heriot Bay.
The HVDC Vancouver Island is the name for HVDC interconnection between the Vancouver Island Terminal (VIT) near North Cowichan, British Columbia on Vancouver Island at and the Arnott Substation (ARN) near Delta, British Columbia at on the Canadian mainland, which went into operation in 1968 and was extended in 1977.
 HVDC Vancouver Island consists of three overhead line sections with a total length of 42 kilometres and two submarine cable sections with a length of 33 kilometres.
The SS "Valencia" was an iron-hulled passenger steamer built as a minor ocean liner for the Red D Line for service between Venezuela and New York City.
 She was built in 1882 by William Cramp and Sons, one year after the construction of her sister ship "Caracas".
 She was a 1,598 ton vessel (originally 1,200 tons), 252 feet (77 m) in length.
 In 1897, "Valencia" was deliberately attacked by the Spanish cruiser "Reina Mercedes" off Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
 The next year, she became a coastal passenger liner on the U.S. West Coast and served periodically in the Spanish–American War as a troopship to the Philippines.
 "Valencia" was wrecked off Cape Beale, which is near Clo-oose, on the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, in 1906.
 Since her sinking killed 100 people (including all of the women and children aboard), some classify the wreck of "Valencia" as the worst maritime disaster in the "Graveyard of the Pacific", a famously treacherous area off the southwest coast of Vancouver Island.
The Vancouver Island Ranges, formerly called the Vancouver Island Mountains, is a mountain range extending along the length of Vancouver Island which has an area of 31,788 km² (12,273 sq; mi).
 The Vancouver Island Ranges comprise the central and largest part of the island.
 The Geological Survey of Canada refers to Vancouver Island, the Queen Charlotte Islands, and the Alaska Panhandle as the Insular Belt including the sea floor out to 100 km (62 mi) west of Vancouver Island.
 The Vancouver Island Ranges are a sub-range of the Insular Mountains.
