VISION

Boise’s Library Campus will serve as a gateway to the city, but also a gateway to our history, to new experiences, and to the ideas that shape our future. Its spaces and services, located in the heart of Boise’s Cultural District, will be available to anyone, yet distinct to our corner of the world.

PROJECT GOALS

1. DESIGN a modern and innovative new Main Library, Boise Center for Arts & History, and shared event space that serves as an iconic gateway to the city of Boise.

2. CREATE a public gathering space for Boiseans and a destination for out-of-town visitors.

3. Serve as a CONNECTION point — physically linking the city’s cultural, natural, recreational, and educational resources.

4. Develop a SUSTAINABLE facility that meets city energy goals, and demonstrates a commitment to community health and engagement.
