Strathalbyn Library And Community Centre

Embracing change and reinventing library service delivery were at the core of the brief for the Alexandrina Council Strathalbyn Library, Council and Community Centre.

The contemporary architectural additions to the original School House built in 1850 are welcoming and engaging. They have created a new identity and enhanced the context of what has become the Civic Precinct adjacent to the Angas River and historic Soldiers Memorial Gardens. This project received the Jim Crawford Encouragement Award in 2012.
