About North Regional Library

North Regional is the largest of the Minneapolis community libraries. A major renovation project, completed in January 2007, has realigned the entire main floor for better service and enhanced the building's exterior to present a more welcoming face to the community. Inside, the furnishings and layout provide an air of discovery with bright, inviting colors.
