The Present Situation of Changsha Library

20 15 12.28, the new Changsha Library opened. The new museum is located in Changsha Riverside Cultural Park in the Xinhe Delta, bordering Xiangjiang River in the west and Liuyang River in the north, with beautiful scenery and superior geographical location. The project was established in April 2004 and formally broke ground in February 2007. The building area is 31320m2, the building height is 24.5m, and it has 5 floors.

The shape design of the new library shows that the building rises from the soil like gravel impacted by the river and stands at the intersection of Xiangjiang River and Liuyang River with a stubborn attitude. By simulating the "sandbar" shape with the "hard stone" shape, the architectural shape is in harmony with the surrounding environment. It can be seen that the overall open design embodies the thinking and innovation of "Huxiang spirit"; He created an upright, stubborn and brave "Hunan character" with tough sculptures; The smooth and fresh outline embodies the heroic, romantic, natural and frank "artistic charm of Huxiang". The exterior wall design of the library is based on Xunzi's persuasion, which encourages learning and promotes the spirit of Huxiang culture. "The gentleman said: You can't learn." "Green is taken from blue, and green is blue." "I've been thinking about it all day. It's better to learn it later." "Accumulated soil is a mountain, and the wind and rain are prosperous; The water drops merged into the ocean and the dragon was born; Accumulate goodness into virtue, the gods are complacent, and the sacred heart is prepared. " It fully shows the cultural heritage of the library. The spatial layout of the new library has designed many vertical open reading according to the dislocation and displacement of the body.

The platform and sloping body form have created a degraded reading space, further enriching the architectural space. The combination of corridors and stairs interspersed above the central retrieval hall and the electronic reading room dramatizes the space and forms a multi-level and multi-directional reading communication space. The new library plans to collect 2 million books, which can accommodate 3,000 people (seats) at the same time. Set up natural science reading room, children's reading room, children's audio-visual education center, national studies museum, newspaper reading room, visually impaired literature reading room, electronic literature reading room, high-definition film and television room, humanities and social sciences reading room, foreign language reading room, special literature reading room, ancient books stack room, special literature stack room, multi-functional lecture hall, multimedia classroom, bookstore, 24-hour self-help room, virtual experience center and animation hall.
