The 10-story Pingshan Library covers a floor area of 13,200 square meters, providing more than 800 seats and a carefully curated collection of at least 1.2 million books. It has also become a part of the citywide borrowing-and-returning service platform, allowing readers to return books borrowed from the Pingshan Library to any of its counterparts in Shenzhen.
