The city's main public library fills several floors of Richard Meier's white City Hall complex on Spui, around the largest atrium in the Netherlands.

The third floor is for children and teens, with a play area, books shelved by age, study spaces and a workshop room. Story sessions run there, including weekly read-alouds in Serbian. The fifth floor holds a theater and a green terrace with city views.
