The new Michelle Obama Branch Library was designed by LPA Inc in Long Beach, California. It was intended to replace the previous North Branch Library which did not provide enough spaces for community gatherings, optimized children’s services, and a teen space. Finished in 2016, the library is presented for everyone who loves to enjoy good books while gathering with other people.
