Since Stormen library opened four years ago the number of visitors has increased fourfold. The library is a popular meeting place not only for people in Bodø. It also attracts people from the wider region.
The library is built as airy as possible – and the furniture is specifically chosen to fit into this light and airy environment. An important factor is that the same furniture is found in many variations: In the children's zone the shelving systems have a size that suits children, and in the adult zone you will find the same furniture – but adapted to adults. This applies to the whole of the library.
