Jubilee Library

The Jubilee Library is a public library with four floors of contemporary design featuring extensive glass windows that flood the interior with daylight. The building contains computer workstations, printers, scanners, and designated areas for exhibitions and events throughout its spaces.

The building opened in 2005 as part of a major urban development project to modernize public facilities across Brighton. This opening marked a turning point in how the city provided library services to its residents.

The library serves as a meeting place where residents gather for exhibitions featuring local artists and photographers that rotate throughout the year. Community members use the spaces for talks, discussions, and creative workshops that shape how people connect with their neighborhood.

Daytime visits work best when the glass windows provide ample light and the spaces are easy to navigate. The facility is well organized with clear signage between the four floors and sections for different age groups and needs.

The building uses environmental design principles that naturally regulate temperature and reduce energy consumption across all floors. These sustainable features are built into the architecture without interfering with how visitors use the spaces.
