STARK COUNTY DISTRICT LIBRARY
LAKE COMMUNITY BRANCH
In 2015 HBM worked with the Stark County District Library to develop a Visioning Assessment of their facilities exploring opportunities to incorporate new service models throughout the system in response to changes in library trends and community needs. The 7-branch reimagining process began in 2020 with anticipated completion in 2023. These phased renovation projects apply successful and tested design and functional solutions while still maintaining neighborhood individuality in the arrangement of spaces and programmatic elements.
Nestled within a bustling educational complex, The Lake Community Branch is a vital resource for a diverse community, including a significant homeschool population. To support the additional academic needs of this community, we've added study rooms, an expansive teen area, optimized shelving, and reconfigured the service desks for better oversight. Committed to enriching educational journeys, the Lake Community Branch serves as a beacon of knowledge and community engagement.
