Perhaps Canada's BEST library!nnI kept getting told to visit Calgary's Central Library and I'm so glad I did. As much as it is a beautiful place to read, learn, study, or get work done, it's also an architectural marvel, unmatched by any modern designed library I've ever been to.nnEven though it's quite big and tall, it feels so easy walking between floors and on each floor, signage is clear and easily found. If you still have questions, there are employees everywhere in blue vests, ready to help out.nnThere is also a lovely children's area, equipped with a playground. It'd be the perfect place to bring kids on a rainy day. They can get exercise, read, colour, and play with friends all in an area that's easily observable from wherever you choose to sit.nnThere are plenty of spots to retreat to and get work done in quiet, including a beautiful open space on the top floor. It is so inviting and makes you want to stay.nnLastly, I love how well lit it is. Libraries can sometimes be dark and illuminated with bad fluorescent lighting. That's NOT the case at the Central Library.nnThe city, the library, and the architects hit a home run on this wonderful public space.
Great architecture and eye catcher. Despite the slowor sleepy neaigbouthood, this built standing up high and invite you to visit. My kids were so excited to see this great wood working tunnel, nicely designed interior and futuristic facade on the building, a Gem in the old town.
It was a beautiful library with a very impressive architectural environment. I couldn't help but admire it because it was perfectly designed not only in appearance but also in interior. By my standards, I could see the Nordic feeling, but I could see the very reasonable aspect of an advanced country. I strongly recommend you to visit once.
Great place if you’re trying to study or work in motivated environment. Places very conveniently located in downtown with easy train access although if you’re trying to park, then mostly parking is paid during business hours. But great atmosphere and great structural design lots of space usually never overcrowded and very peaceful and quiet.
Superb place to visit ! Out of best libraries one can visit ! It has too much to explore and for all age groups! The architecture and artifacts are not be missed. The escalator makes it easy for people to explore it! People interested to know calgary history should visit ! There is audio and video editing rooms too !
