Project Concept

The Baton Rouge Children’s Library will serve as learning destination in the community for all local children. This environment will be a place where reading and learning are an adventure and imagination is encouraged, so that children explore and learn about the world around them. The adventure begins as children step into the front door. They will be in awe of larger than life elements such as trees with book shelves built into them or castles to climb up in and read a book. The exciting elements will flow into the academic center within the library and inspire creativity there as well. The library’s connection to the community will be an integral part of its success. Small exhibit space and interactive learning technology may even attack local school field trips to this site. Overall, the main purpose of this development will be to create a safe and stimulating environment for children to learn in and want to continue visiting.
