Abstract

The Stockholm City Library was designed by the renowned Swedish architect Erik Gunnar Asplund in 1928. Since then, the role of public libraries has changed dramatically. Nowadays, public libraries constitute important social infrastructure within cities; they should provide a wide range of program for all needs and demands and enhance interaction among people. This project is about the transformation and expansion of the Stockholm City Library, in an attempt to open up the library to a broader public and address its various today’s and future needs.
