Art in the Library
As a community center, we believe art—like information—should be accessible to everyone. Our building is filled with original artworks for all to enjoy, so please take a moment to view our gallery and then stop by to see your favorite pieces in person.
Green Initiatives
We’re a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certified building. To meet this certification, our building includes special features such as a green roof, which is long lasting, insulates the building more efficiently than a standard roof and helps prevent stormwater runoff. Other environmentally friendly features of the building include efficient water, lighting and heating and cooling systems.
We encourage eco-friendly transportation by providing premiere parking spaces to low emission or fuel efficient vehicle. We also offer a bicycle rack at the front entrance and bike lock rentals at our Information Desk if you’ve forgotten yours. Pace Bus stops are conveniently located In front of our building and just across the street.
To help our visitors stay green, we offer an in-house recycling program. Each floor of the library contains bins for recycling paper, plastic and cans. And we’ve almost completely eliminated the use of plastic bags by providing patrons reusable cloth bags that are available for checkout just like a book or other library materials. Cloth bags can be returned to a service desk or one of our free standing book drops.
