(1) HELSINKI, Dec. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Citycon has signed a contract with the municipality of Botkyrka in the greater Stockholm region about expanding the existing library in Tumba Centrum to 1,700 square meters and adding several additional municipal services. The new library will open in September 2021. This supports Citycon's strategy of developing mixed use urban hubs that combine retail with healthcare and many types of essential community services. The library in Tumba Centrum will be completely refurbished. Two examples of upgraded services include adding the ability to borrow recreational sports equipment and a new municipal services office for residents. When planning the expansion, the municipality of Botkyrka has been inspired by the library in Kista Galleria, which won the international award "Public Library of the Year Award 2015" (by Danish Agency for Culture and Realdania) for its partnerships with local stakeholders, the use of digital services and the large variety of activities for visitors.
