Library Connection at Southcenter

摘要

The Library Connection at Southcenter is a public library that is located inside the Southcenter Mall in Tukwila, Washington. With nearly 2,000,000 square feet and hundreds of retail tenants, Southcenter is the largest indoor shopping mall in the state of Washington. The King County Library System operates three branch libraries inside shopping malls, as a strategy to bring library services directly to a suburban population that might not otherwise visit a public library. It also provides a quiet respite for stressed shoppers. These "retail" branch libraries are heavily used, with circulation and visit counts that are among the highest in the system of fifty branch libraries.
