A Hub for Sustainability, Education, and Exploration

Visitors can enjoy the library’s amenities, including free WiFi, nearby parks, shopping, and restrooms, while charging their vehicles at the EV parking spots—part of the library’s ongoing commitment to sustainability. Solar energy powers the library as part of its Zero Net Energy initiative, ensuring efficiency in the desert climate.

The library is also part of a larger, thoughtfully designed project that includes a sheriff’s station and park.

As visitors walk the property, both kids and adults can enjoy a great educational experience, learning about the planets and stars through these interactive displays. 

Walk of the Cosmos Borrego Springs

“Playing off the celestial skies was tremendous inspiration for the entire library and park site,” said architect Ralph Roesling. “The Galaxy Court, Cosmos Way and Polaris Plaza educate with concrete markers indicating the planets’ relationships to earth and sun. Everything about the site has been thought through, with respect to recreation, dark skies astronomy, discovery, and places for imagination.”
