Augsburg Park Library, Public library branch in Richfield, United States.

Augsburg Park Library is a branch library in Richfield with a building designed around existing oak trees, using staggered windows that preserve these trees while bringing natural light into reading spaces. The facility provides K-12 homework assistance, computer access, technology resources, and a meeting room for community use.

The branch opened in 1951 on Lyndale Avenue South before relocating in February 1975 to its current site on land purchased from Augsburg College. This move enabled a new building designed with environmental consideration for the landscape.

The library serves a multilingual community by maintaining collections in Somali, Spanish, and Vietnamese, with Vietnamese folktales specifically selected for local residents. These language resources reflect how the branch connects with the diverse neighborhoods it serves.

The library offers computer access and technology resources for visitors of all ages, with a meeting room that can be reserved for group gatherings. The branch is straightforward to navigate and welcoming for people seeking educational support or community space.

The library's 15,000-square-foot building, opened in February 1975, was designed by InterDesign, Inc. around existing oak trees, remnants of the oak savanna, with staggered windows on the east and west sides. Construction was delayed when soil studies found alluvial soil at Nicollet and 72nd Avenue South that had to be removed, adding $35,000 to costs.
