“This award acknowledges the thought and innovation that went into the sustainable design and build of this tremendous community asset.
“The Melton Library and Learning Hub is an outstanding, landmark building that enhances civic pride and will service our great community for many years to come.
“We hope that the Library and Learning Hub will also inspire other organisations to new levels of environmental sustainability and efficiency when embarking on similar projects.”
