Taichung City Library Xixi Branch Introduction
The library houses approximately 100,000 books and 150 types of journals, with spaces designed for different age groups and audiences. It includes sections for infants and toddlers, a children's reading area, a periodicals and newspapers section, a special area for Taichung Learning Institute, a senior citizens area, an open reading area, and an architectural lifestyle aesthetics area (CC Architectural Museum). It also plans to establish a youth reading area, multifunctional activity rooms, an audio-visual area, a diverse learning room, a wireless internet area, and an information retrieval area, regularly hosting lectures, movie screenings, storytime sessions, and other activities to provide comprehensive services to the public. The Xixi Branch Library emphasizes "architectural lifestyle aesthetics" in its collections and has signed a cooperation agreement for the "CC Architectural Museum" with the Taichung Architects Association on April 10. It is committed to the concept of Children & Creativity, jointly creating a thematic area focused on "architectural lifestyle aesthetics." The "CC Architectural Museum" collects professional books related to architecture and architectural journals from around the world, and regularly hosts a series of events such as "Architecture Exhibitions," "Human Library," "Architects Talk About Architecture," and "Fun Talks About Architecture." Through professional sharing by architects, it aims to bridge the gap between the public and architecture, providing a simple and elegant reading environment where the public can indulge in a sea of books and fully experience the vibrant creativity and new aesthetics of the city!
