Main Library Weekend Closures

As part of the remodel effort, Main Library at 201 Peterson Street, will need to close for the replacement of electrical panels on both the first and second floors. The confirmed dates for closure are the weekends of February 25-26 and March 3-4. It would be impractical and unsafe to try to remain open during this replacement, as numerous electrical circuits will be non-functional during the process. Closing on weekends allows for weekday renovation/construction work to continue, and requires the least number of hours of closure to the public. This replacement was initially planned for the December-January closure, but the replacement panels did not arrive in time for the work to occur then.

We have been assured that the server room will be with power so that our network will be up and operational during the closure. Staff is working together to make sure the network and library services at Harmony and Council Tree Libraries are not disrupted by the shutdown.

Thank you for your continued patience!

The Excitement is Building!
After months of planning the Main Library remodel, the project is underway. Library staff are excited about the new expansion, and though the phased schedule of construction through June of 2012 may cause an inconvenience to some patrons, it will be well worth it!
