    2018 Annual Report (PDF)

    THE LAMP OF KNOWLEDGE 2018 Report to the Community THE LAMP OF KNOWLEDGE THE LAMP OF KNOWLEDGE HAS LONG STOOD AS SYMBOL FOR CLEVELAND PUBLIC LIBRARY’S VISION. The design appears in a delicately leaded insert in the glass over the Main Library entrance, carved in marble over the doors leading to Brett Hall, and in tile in the lending area of the Louis Stokes Wing. This motif signals the Library’s efforts to empower the public through free and open access to information and resources, a commitment that has been part of our foundation since 1869. This 2018 Report to the Community shares the work Cleveland Public Library has done this year to ensure the Lamp of Knowledge only grows brighter in the years to come. Our Mission: We are The People’s University, the center of learning for a diverse and inclusive community. Our Vision: Cleveland Public Library will be the driving force behind a powerful culture of learning that will inspire Clevelanders from all walks of life to continually learn, share, and seek out new knowledge in ways that are beneficial to themselves, their community, and the world. MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR A Brilliant Future In 2018, Cleveland Public Library enjoyed an exciting and successful year. We reopened the historic South Branch after a major restoration and preservation process, an initiative that illuminates our larger commitment to breathing new life into all our branch libraries in the coming years. To that end, nine neighborhood libraries received important repair work in 2018 as the first Felton Thomas, Jr.

    2019-2020 Design Drafting Project

    Design Drafting Competition 2019-2020 Design Problem and Project Description USS Cod Submarine Memorial a National Historic Landmark on Cleveland’s North Coast Harbor 1201 N. Marginal Road Cleveland, Ohio Project Description: Have you ever seen a 312-foot long submarine in person before? Have you ever imagined performing your daily school or work duties inside the narrow spaces of a submarine? You can get a better idea by visiting the permanently moored USS Cod Submarine Memorial in Cleveland, Ohio along the North Coast Harbor. Upon arriving to the USS Cod, you will notice that it does not have a proper visitor center. So get your sea legs and your design creativity kicked into high gear. We want you to create a visitor center that will provide flex space to accommodate groups and details and amenities for all ages. The design should consider use by large groups of school children (K-12) or clusters of adults from bus tours, singles and local families, visitors from abroad, current and former military members. The submarine itself houses most of the exhibits. However, the Visitors Center and the submarine should be extensions of one another to tell the story and honor its engineering marvel and the people that were a part of submarine history. Visitors to the USS Cod should be able to enjoy the Memorial site during operating hours of 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., any day of the week, in good and bad weather. Entrants should consider the Cleveland North Harbor weather when designing the exterior spaces.
