This is the young adult blog for the newly opened
TIMBERGLEN BRANCH!
Timberglen features a Teen Center and we are looking to get your input for ideas, programs and events at the Library.
Here is some 411 about the new branch...
Timberglen Branch
18505 Midway Road 75287
214-671-1365
Located in northwest Dallas on Midway Road just south of the George Bush Turnpike, the Timberglen Branch is one of the newest editions to the Dallas Public Library system, having opened on February 24, 2007. This building is over 18,000 square feet and is located next to the Timberglen Recreation Center and features many energy saving qualities as well as the third Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Resource Collection in the Dallas Public Library system.
The kinetic sculpture On The Wind located in front of the building was designed by David B. Hickman specifically for the library. Visually, the work has imagery relative to the library in the form of two open books merging with CD’s. The work also provides a shaded area for quiet reflection or reading. The sculpture acknowledges the green building concept by using wind power to provide the circular movement as well as the presentation of key words to reinforce the ideas of learning and conservation.
The library features regular story times for children and a book club for teens and adults.
