This is the most beautiful and comfortable library I have visited . I love library, and visited most of the libraries that I stayed in that cities. So very impressive. They use many wood and natural night to make the library looks bright and beautiful. Very spacious and comfortable. You can easily find a chair or sofa to enjoy your reading. No need to fight for a seat under pressure . A peaceful place that you don't want to leave.
Came for the famous interior design. The space is large, making it easy to find a quiet corner to relax and read. Parents can bring their children to the kids’ section, and all the little ones seemed very happy. On the second floor, there is a giant chess set to play with. Walking through this building feels like an interesting journey of exploration. Unlike the overly serious atmosphere I imagined for a library, this place allows soft conversations, making the overall experience feel more relaxed and comfortable.
This is the most amazing library I have ever been in. It was beautiful, inviting and functional. There was such a great variety of seating from casual bar top seating, to comfy chairs and couches, to single tables in quiet or private spaces, to bookable rooms. Also, most tables have plugs. I was in awe. We spent so much time here and it was so lovely. It left us feeling inspired. Thank you to the city of Calgary for creating such an amazing space. It is definitely worth a visit - even if you weren’t planning on taking a book out.
I visited this library more as a tourist, simply to admire how beautiful the place is — but I also ended up reading a book there. I was really impressed! It’s such a lovely, atmospheric space with a huge selection of books. Everyone can find something to suit their taste. I highly recommend visiting — whether you’re just a visitor like me, or a local resident looking for a peaceful spot to read and relax.
Fantastic library with stunning architecture, full of warm wood and flowing curved shapes. The interior design and lighting make it a beautiful place to spend time in, whether you’re studying, browsing, or relaxing. There’s also a cafe inside. The library offers tons of excellent free online resources as well.nnTruly one of the highlights of downtown Calgary.
