Library Updates

February 26, 2025:

After several months of construction, we are pleased to announce our dedicated Lactation Room is now open for use! It is located on the 2nd floor in the Children’s Library and has room to accommodate a baby stroller and sibling. It’s equipped with a sink and changing station. Please see a librarian to access the room.

Our new Revolving Door is now fully operational as well. While it might take a little time for visitors to get used to, the new door will help prevent drafts, dust, and noise from entering the Library. We are a LEED Certified building and strive to reduce our carbon footprint and be a sustainable resource for the community. The revolving door will help conserve heat in the winter and keep the building cooler in the summer, in addition to cutting down on heating and cooling costs. As a reminder, if you need the door to move more slowly for any reason, simply hit the blue handicap button before you step in. There is one located on both the inside and outside of the door.

Thank you for being patient while we worked to make improvements and updates to our building!

We are pleased to announce updates to the Children’s Library–our walls have been freshly painted and we have beautiful new carpet throughout our space. There’s still some work to do and more fun and exciting additions coming soon. Work continues on the new Lactation Room, we are eagerly anticipating the arrival of new furniture, and the toys and Magic Desktop computers will return soon. This month, Family Story Time returned to the Library and will once again be held every Monday and Thursday at 10 am. Kids will also find crayons and a fun art project back on our “Very Hungry Carterpillar” art cart. We thank everyone for their continued patience during this project and can’t wait for you to enjoy our refreshed and renewed space.

We have also started the next phase of work on the installation of our revolving door. During this time, visitors will need to enter and exit though our Board Room to access the Library. In order to complete the cement work required to install the door, the engraved pavers were carefully removed and will soon be relocated under the covered walkway. There are several steps that will need to be completed before the door is finally installed, but the good news is we will remain open throughout the process!

Construction has started in the Children’s Library! While parts of this area will be restricted, we have created a Pop-Up Children’s Library on the 2nd floor. You can still browse and check out books and materials. Can’t find the item you’re looking for? Just ask the Children’s Librarian on desk and we will find it for you! You can also call ahead and request a topical book bundle thoughtfully crafted just for your child. We are excited for the changes coming to the Children’s Library and can’t wait for you to see our fresh, new space!
