Metropolitan public libraries have been a resource cornerstone regionally and nationally for many decades in the United States. The library that serves as the cornerstone in Oklahoma City is the Ronald J. Norick Downtown Library. As part of the MAPS construction program, the state-of-the-art facility was completed in 2004. The library houses an auditorium, classrooms, an event room, study cubes, and a multitude of books and online resources.
Library curator, Abigail Stout, says the library is not just books anymore. “We’re really a community hub. People come here for internet, they come here for story-time, they come to study with their classmates. It’s really a fun place to be.” Abigail adds, “the library provides digital and downloadable content and all types of e-media; we have music CD’s, we have launch pads, you can actually stream movies online.”
Join in and support your local libraries; the experience is worth the trip!
