Abstract

from the article:

"The Portland Public Library is situated in Maine's most densely populated and diverse zip code. Before its renovation in 2010, the building looked drab and almost foreboding from the sidewalk of Congress Street. Now it has an aeronautical façade, a vanity of bluish glass and a few too many right angles. But it's bright and warm inside, and has a pulsing, breathing life of its own. 'Library is like small city,' security guard Marko Petrovic muses. If that's the case, then the library staff is like a small civil-service division."
