New Busse Branch Opens Saturday | Cedar Rapids News

Get ready to celebrate the grand opening of Cedar Rapids’ brand-new Busse Branch Library this Saturday—complete with a ribbon-cutting, tours, and fun activities from 10 AM to 2 PM. Nearly double the size of its predecessor, this 40,000-square-foot space boasts twice as many books, dedicated teen and kids zones, 11 study rooms, outdoor learning gardens, and even moth-shaped lights in the children’s area. Thanks to over 460 community donors and staff who moved 60,000 books in weeks, this is a true neighborhood triumph. Plus, new features like a drive-up hold pickup, an illuminated Bloomhall Discovery Garden, and the Allsop Conference Center with flexible event spaces make it more than just a library—it’s a vibrant community hub.
