Twice the size of previous branch facilities, the 16,000 S.F. Daniel E. Ruiz Branch Library incorporates sustainable features and advanced network technologies into dynamic, community-friendly spaces. The main collections and reading area are under a canopy of generous diffused daylight brought in by a tall perimeter clerestory. Tapered, faceted concrete columns, a children's reading bay, folded metal awnings, custom exterior sconces, warm Lueder's limestone coursing, and metal screen fencing give the library its unique and crafted character.
