The Durham County Regional Public Library in Durham, North Carolina, takes advantage of brick for environmental benefit. Brick's thermal mass improves the energy efficiency of the LEED Silver-certified facility, helping to keep energy use 35 percent lower than that of comparable conventionally designed buildings. The brick was procured locally, and made from raw materials extracted regionally.
