Vancouver Public Library’s Central Branch maintains a collection of 1.4 million items and acts as a system-wide resource for 22 branch locations. A beautiful building is located in downtown Vancouver and looks like Colosseum in Roma. Designed by Moshe Safdie and opened in 1995. You could easily spend a day in this massive building with multiple stories. The first thing you will notice is the beautiful glass atrium that creates an indoor space in front of the main library doors.
