| Spend Time in Community at Your Library
Do you know about third places? When you're not at home or at work, third places offer a space to gather regularly and experience community, inclusivity, and social bonding. The library is an ideal third place, where you can visit without an invitation or appointment, come and go as you please, and feel that you belong. In addition to comfy seating in our beautiful library locations, at the main library you can use our Study Cubes, Meeting Rooms, and Auditorium (reservations required) to gather with your people. Never explored the main library? Come visit and try spending time in our second-floor Reading Room, Mountain View Room, or Teen Room just for teens!
