Ottawa Public Library and Library and Archives Canada Joint Facility

After working together on the Senate of Canada building, KWC and Diamond Schmitt Architects are teaming up to design the new home for the Ottawa Public Library and Library and Archives Canada (OPL-LAC).

Throughout 2019, the public was invited to make contributions and inspire the design in an ongoing program called Inspire555, a nod to the building’s future location at 555 Albert.

The design for the $192.9-million facility was unveiled in January 2020.
