Construction at the Library

As you have no doubt noticed, we are undergoing major construction to the southeastern side of the library.


This construction includes a new addition to the Children's Library and will provide much-needed space for programs, storage, and staff.


The new addition will also include a new Used Book Sale Room, as well as storage space and work area for our volunteers, the Friends of the Library.


Thank you for your patience during this time of noisiness. It has been quite the metamorphosis to our building and we're sure you'll be impressed with the outcome. The construction is scheduled for completion in the late Summer or early in the Fall. We look forward to giving you a tour of the new addition as soon as it is completed!
