Document Description
The proposed project is the construction of a new, approximately 33,000 square foot, Riverside County Law Library and governmental office facility. The project also includes the acquisition of three parcels and the demolition of some of the existing structures, or portions thereof, on the project site. The Library and additional County office facilities will require approximately 33,000 square feet of usable building space, with the library itself utilizing approximately 16,000 square feet and the remaining 17,000 square feet primarily designated for County court services offices useful to the public defender, mental health, child support services, county counsel and/or probation. The new law library will include space for shelves to accommodate an ever-increasing collection of traditional bound books (which presently total about 80,000 volumes), the law library's administrative offices and offices for public services staff and technical staff (including office space for the reference librarian, office mail processing, updating library material, etc.). Other facilities within the law library may include, but are not limited to, an employee break room, one 16-person capacity conference room, about two 8-person capacity meeting rooms, about two 2- to 4-person capacity meeting rooms, several study tables and booths, a public counter, storage areas, a new computer research and training room with up to 20 stations, a computer systems room, a presentation room (with audio visual facilities) with seating for up to 100 persons, and one or more areas designated for extra quiet studying.
