Description: The Charlotte Mecklenburg Library is one of America’s leading urban public libraries, serving a community of more than one million citizens in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Through 20 locations, targeted outreach and online, the Library delivers exceptional services and programs, with a mission to improve lives and build a stronger community. In short, we strive to be essential to our community.

Curator's Comments: As far as Charlotte-Mecklenburg libraries go, I wouldn’t rate it among the most impressive (SouthPark wins with its marvelous patio overlooking a fountain garden), but it’s a fine place nonetheless. I like sitting by the windows and watching the traffic on The Plaza go by. There’s a Dave’s Hot Chicken across the street if you’re hungry, and a Harris Teeter so you can shop after you’re done hanging out.
