Ordrup Library is connected to the local high school under the same roof.

The idea is to have a multi-purpose cultural building that includes and stimulates both sports, culture and reading - and creating a recreational place in the city.

The building is closely integrated into the landscape leaving a beautiful view to green areas from the inside.

The library is central in the building witch also include a sports hall and a high school. Some areas allow room for more noisy activities and as you enter deeper into the library the less likely you will hear the other users.

The purpose of library and information services is to promote equal access to education, literature and art, and to constant development of knowledge, skills, and civic prowess, as well as to internationalism and life-long learning. The library will produce virtual and interactive web services as well as educational content in data networks.
