Abstract

This article presents a portrait of ImaginOn, a combined children's library and theater building in Charlotte, NC. Unlike so many modern library buildings intended primarily as warehouses for materials or as civic icons, this structure is designed to encourage visitors to experience the joy to be found in stories of all kinds. The author conveys the excitement of ImaginOn and, using photographs, highlights the principal features of the structure. The author acknowledges the significant assistance of the staff of the Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenburg County (PLCMC) and ImaginOn, particularly Lois Kilkka, library manager of ImaginOn and Charles Brown, director of PLCMC in the preparation of this article. For the sake of brevity, the author has paraphrased some text from the ImaginOn website and publications.
