Redding Library - Shasta County
Redding, California
Funded in part by the California Library Bond Act of 2000, the Redding Library embodies the aspirations of the Town of Redding, the County of Shasta, and the State of California. This 55,000-sq.-ft. public library features: an outdoor community area, an expanded local history area, a 200-seat community room, heritage room, teen center, children's library and garden, technology training center, book store, coffee bar, and drive-thru book drop. Owing to an abundant county and regional history and a progressive, responsible attitude toward sustainable design, the Redding Library proves to be a project rich in historical references and sensitive to energy efficient design strategies as well. The green elements of the library include a 7,000-sq.-ft. vegetated green roof, photovoltaic power, thermal energy storage, indirect lighting and extensive use of recycled and recyclable materials.
