Floor Plan with book shelves and furniture. In the upper left corner is the teen room. Bottom right is the community room. Coming in the main doors you pass through a lobby with doors to the community room on one side, restrooms and an espresso bar on the other. Once in the library proper the book return in on the right.

It is 22,543 square feet.
