Update

Progress on the renovation is occurring very quickly. Carpeting has been installed, and the “storefronts” are mostly complete, as are ceilings and lighting. In process are the circulation desk and self-checkout/book return kiosks. The beautiful wood ceiling at the entryway is a lovely architectural element. The white ceilings and LED lighting make the space bright and cheerful. The children’s room is mostly complete with the “clouds” hanging overhead, and the new story time room is almost ready for Miss Heather’s lovely programs. In the coming few weeks we hope to be able to schedule a re-opening date so stay tuned!
