New library &
Learning Centre

The aim of these proposals is to provide a brand-new multi-partner facility at a prominent town centre gateway to connect people with local opportunities that will lead to skills development, the raising of aspirations and attainment of meaningful employment. In the design section, you will find more transparent and open frontages to make the library feel more open and connecting with the surrounding public realm. 

​

The building will provide a home for Library and Registration Services, Adult Community Learning and the University of Essex’s new Centre for Coastal Communities as well as a number of other local organisations who work in partnership with ECC’s services.
