The library includes adult reading areas, a teen area and early childhood area with dedicated programming space, a homework center, a 100-seat community meeting room, express-service checkout machines at the lobby information service desks, public access computers, staff areas, and public restrooms; associated site improvements, including landscaping, walkways, and security lighting. The project was designed and constructed to achieve LEED Gold level certification.
