February 9 marks 100 days since the opening of the new Central Library. To celebrate this milestone, read on for 100 features — in no particular order — that you can enjoy. 1. The ArchwayThe gorgeous outdoor archway that welcomes everyone into the Library is built with western redwood cedar. The wooden soffit’s design is inspired by the chinook arch cloud formations common to Calgary’s skies.2. Shaikh Family Welcome Gallery As you enter Central Library, you’ll find yourself in the Shaikh Family Welcome Gallery. The warm and beautiful gallery is the centre of the Library, bringing all the floors together.3. A Space for Celebration Opening Weekend celebrations at the Central Library attracted over 52,000 visitors in just four days, and at two months old, the new location played host to the City of Calgary’s New Year’s Eve bash. There has been so much to celebrate at Central in the first 100 days, and more festivities are always just around the corner.4. BMO Community Room A free, bookable community space, the BMO Community Room is a vibrant hub for the sharing of knowledge among Calgarians.5. TRIO TRIO is the public art piece located outside of the building. Whimsical and colourful, the three moving pieces by artist Christian Moeller add a pop of fun to the landscape.6. Outdoor SpacesCentral Library is lucky to be surrounded by outdoor spaces for all to enjoy. An outdoor gathering space and amphitheatre was designed to be a vibrant and welcoming place for outdoor activities in the warmer months.7. Library Express Conveniently located on the main floor, here’s the spot to pick up your holds, find popular new titles, and browse through books recommended by Library staff.8. Laptop BarsThe Library experience has gone digital. Laptop bars overlooking the Shaikh Family Welcome Gallery offer patrons a stunning view as they check out Library materials online and work remotely.9. More Charging Stations You can browse for hours, thanks to the increase in power outlets scattered throughout the building. Keep your phone or laptop topped up and tap into the Library’s collection of Digital Resources during your visit, or on your way to your next destination.10. Storied Location The confluence of the Bow and Elbow Rivers is known to the Blackfoot as Moh’kinsstis. Before it was Fort Calgary — the birthplace of the modern city of Calgary — it was a gathering place for Indigenous peoples for thousands of years. Throughout Central Library, artwork and installations by Indigenous artists acknowledge this storied land and the narratives of the people who call it home. 11. Welcome Kiosks You can book meeting rooms, see what’s happening at the Library on the day you’re visiting, and more when you use the Welcome Kiosks.12. Patricia A. Whelan Performance Hall The Patricia A. Whelan Performance Hall is a stunning space, with a warm wooden ceiling that’s mirrored on the walls by vertical slats. You’ll want to linger after the performance you’re watching is over just to enjoy the natural warmth of the space.13. Michael Green Green RoomThis is a place where speakers and performers can prepare prior to entering the Patricia A. Whelan Performance Hall. It’s named in honour of Michael Green, a driving force and visionary for Calgary’s arts community.14.

This project will connect Central Library with the beautiful Jack and Jean Leslie RiverWalk — an award-winning pathway with dedicated pedestrian and cycle lanes — and the Bow River.15. Windows of Opportunity Many people have left their mark on Central Library by purchasing group or personal windows and having a short message inscribed. Proceeds from the Windows of Opportunity campaign support the entire Calgary Public Library system.16. Indigenous Placemaking Permanent art by local Indigenous artists is placed in three areas throughout Central Library. The collaborative pieces reflect the vast cultures and communities in Treaty 7 territory.17. Engineering MarvelDid you know Central Library was built over top of the existing CTrain line?

It allows titles to be transported to the Level 2 sorting room, plus it’s really fun to watch.19. A Library For YouThe input of 16,000 Calgarians, gathered during two years of public engagement, informed the spaces and programs in the Central Library. Over 52,000 people visited during Opening Weekend along, and since then, this location has seen over 500,000 patrons come through its doors.20. New Programs Calgary Public Library offers hundreds of in-person programs for everyone: babies, toddlers, preschoolers, families, kids, parents, teens, newcomers, small business owners, job seekers, and anyone looking for learning and enrichment.

Stunning Interior Architecture Wood slat walls and ceilings, endless windows, and intricate staircases are just a few of the striking interior features. You’ll have to visit to see it all!24. Landscaping A beautiful green space lush with flowers and plants will make for the perfect outdoor reading spot.25. Indigenous Languages Resource CentreThe Indigenous Languages Resource Centre will help protect, preserve, and promote Indigenous culture, thanks to $1 million in funding from the Government of Alberta.26. LUKES Gareth Lukes, the third-generation owner of Lukes Drug Mart, and Chef Eric Hendry, of the award-winning Calgary restaurant Bar Von Der Fels, come together to bring not one but two cafés to Central Library. In the new spaces, visitors can experience food with an emphasis on local ingredients and flavours.27. Oculus SkylightLook up! The beautiful oculus skylight allows plenty of natural light to enter the core of the building.28. Shape of the Building If it weren’t for the challenging site Central Library is located on — bisected by a curving LRT line — the building would likely look a lot different. But instead of a boxy building, the Central Library is shaped like a graceful ship, sailing into the future.29. Short Story Dispenser Find this magical machine near the interior LUKES cafe on Level 1, offering original stories by local authors at the push of a button.30.

Library Residency ProgramsDuring the move to the Central Library, our Author in Residence program was joined by two more Residencies – Artist and Historian in Residence. Each of these in-house experts have their own office in the Central Library to offer hours for community workshops and discussion. The Residents also deliver free programming across the system during their stay at the Library.39. A new Central Connection The site where Central Library sits is a key connection between east and west downtown.

Read more about "Stories 100 Reasons to Love the new Central Library"Houmou Guiro is no stranger to libraries. She has visited them since she was seven years old, checking out books every few weeks. But when Houmou moved from France to Canada two years ago, she discovered a library system much different than the one she was used to.There were books to read in Calgary’s libraries, plus so much more. Houmou joined an ESL Coffee and Conversation Club to practice her English, and later signed up for an ESL Writing Club. She improved her English skills and met friends at the programs, which helped her to feel more at home in a new city.“The Library in Calgary is very awesome,” Houmou says. “In Paris, you take your books and that’s it. Here, you have services for babies, for newcomers. If you want to open a business, you have services. It’s all free and open and you can take 99 books out.”Houmou credits a resumé development program she took at the Library with helping her get her first job in Canada, at a retail store downtown. “I had a French resumé, but it’s very different how you do it in Canada. So I learned how to do it and got help to improve my resumé,” she says.She now works for a not-profit organization called PIA, which offers services and programs to francophone immigrants and refugees in Calgary. In this role, Houmou tells other newcomers about available services in the city, including all they can do with a free Library card.“I tell them ‘You have to go to the Library! It’s very good. You can take out a lot of books and a lot of everything else too,’” she says.Houmou is also an avid reader, regularly checking out French and English titles. She blogs about the books she’s reading and her life in Canada. Lately she’s been reading a lot of books about entrepreneurship and marketing, as she works on launching her own business: a French tutoring service for kids.When Houmou had her first child, Demba, she took him to a weekly Baby Rhyme Time program. “I didn’t know any English songs, so it was very good for me to meet some parents, talk about our babies, and sing with them in English. It was so cool,” she says.She brings 19-month-old Demba to Louise Riley Library or the new Central Library every few weeks, just as her family used to take her to the Library in France. “We play, we take books out, we read. He likes turning the pages,” she says. “He really likes coming here. I like the Library so much too.”We want to know how the Library has made a difference in your life.

She’s a long time volunteer with Homebound Readers, a program for people of all ages with mobility or health concerns.The Library program is more than just a book delivery service. “It’s about companionship,” Wong says. The Calgarians she helps are delighted to have fresh books to read and a friendly face to talk to.Wong’s responsibilities include picking up holds or choosing materials, delivering those resources to elderly Library members, and returning their borrowed items. Often, she sticks around for a visit over tea. Wong enjoys those conversations; listening to stories from seniors gives her understanding into another generation, she says.The Homebound Readers program started in 1974, and continues to this day because of volunteers like Wong. Over the past 13 years, Wong has volunteered about 500 hours with the program.Wong works as a library assistant at an elementary school, and says volunteering is another way to share her deep love of libraries with others. That passion started when Wong was a youngster who spent extensive time at a public library in Ontario, learning English as a second language. “Libraries have changed me,” Wong says. “They opened my eyes to the world.”If you are interested in volunteering with the Library, please visit the Volunteers page.
