September 2021
Hudiksvall is a municipality with 37 000 inhabitants at the East coast of Sweden, 300 kilometers North of Stockholm. The library is located in an older building with a classic facade. The interior is completely renewed. The site is centrally in the town, next to an important park. The joint entrance with the cultural centre and the close connection to these facilities enlarges the possibilities of the library. The cultural centre called Glada Hudik (Happy Hudik) supplies the library with a cafeteria, exhibition area and premises for programs and events. The interior of the library is dominated by the stairs in the middle of the main room. The design and atmosphere in the library make it traditional. The basic collection of stocks is good. The library has a special collection containing the local history of this region, Hälsingland. FOUR stars: Very good.
