Comments
The Salisbury Library reopened in November 2019 as the centrepiece of the new four storey Salisbury Community Hub. Designed by Hassell and constructed by Hansen Yuncken, this 6500m2 $43.82 million community and civic facility sees library services extended across the lower two levels acting as a catalyst for the next chapter of library evolution. This transformational facility seamlessly blends the needs of community and Council through the provision of innovative library services, technology and flexible meeting/work spaces. It is a place where the community can participate in opportunities to learn, socialise and feel a part of the Salisbury community.
