Confirm bookgasm.

Hipsters, brace yourself for some serious bookgasms.

Library@Orchard, located on the 3rd and 4th level of Orchard Gateway (that rather empty mall beside 313@Somerset), finally opened its doors this morning after a seven year absence in Singapore's prime shopping belt.

The two-storey library, which features stylo milo furniture, has a strong focus on design. The public can find more than 45,000 design-related books and 46 magazine titles - get this, hipsters - all new and exclusive to Library@Orchard.

The previous Library@Orchard located in Ngee Ann City pulled down the shutters in 2007.

Here are 11 reasons why all self-respecting hipsters should visit the library pronto.

 

1. A library that greets you
