Suseong District Yonghak Library

Suseong-gu Municipal Yonghak Library is a large library with 1 basement floor, 5 above-ground floors, and a total floor area of 4,515㎡. It is the first among public libraries in the Daegu area to open a ‘Multicultural Family Dedicated Resource Room (Danuri),’ housing about 2,200 international books (from 7 countries including China) and materials. Located in Jisan and Beommul-dong, it has three branch libraries under its umbrella—Padong Library (Padong), Muhaksup Library (Hwanggeum and Jisan-dong), and Suseongmot Picture Book Library (Dusan-dong)—and serves as a base library covering the western part of Suseong-gu, playing a central role in local residents’ information use, reading and cultural activities, and lifelong education as a community-oriented library.
It provides an optimal environment through the creation of a familiar environment and user-centered spatial composition, such as the beautiful library exterior shaped like an open book, the humorous statue of a boy reading a book welcoming users, reading discussion rooms where group discussions are possible, and a sky garden where you can enjoy contemplation.
