Parramatta is a city on the move and the face of global Sydney. The geographical centre of Sydney and a hub of ideas, culture and commerce. Parramatta is fast becoming a world class centre of excellence in education, health, research and innovation. It is a home to big thinkers, growing families and ambitious people. People who come from across the globe to live, work and play in our thriving global metropolis. Liveability underpins everything we do at Parramatta. Our city is designed to support the health and wellbeing of residents and visitors. A city designed for people, with a brand new beating heart, our Parramatta Library at PHIVE.
The paper will show the basic features of the library and the awards it received for its role, importance and design as a smart and green building.
