Sustainable construction and universal accessibility

About - The story of a great transformation

The Pierrefonds library project, which required $20.3 million in investments, was carried out as part of the Programme de rénovation, d’agrandissement et de construction de bibliothèques (RAC) and funded through the Entente sur le développement culturel de Montréal, concluded by the Ville de Montréal and the ministère de la Culture et des Communications. Additional funding of $5 million from the Borough of Pierrefonds-Roxboro was provided for the development of administrative spaces and the addition of documents to the collection, for a total project cost of $25.3 million. In addition to the new and renewed services, the surface area of the new library has also been doubled, totalling 3967m2.

In 2012, it was officially announced the Pierrefonds Library would undergo a major renovation. There were two main issues with the old library: the lack of space to house its collection of over 120,000 books and manuscripts and the need to modernize the services offered to its visitors by providing an environment adapted to contemporary needs. In 2013, through an architectural competition, the jury selected the consortium Chevalier Morales architects and DMA architects. The design of the future library would win the prestigious Award of Excellence from Canadian Architect Magazine before even breaking ground.

The library officially reopened to the grand public on May 23, 2019.
