The library's renovation and expansion project is progressing in a timely manner and is on track to be completed in the spring of 2025.

Our newly renovated and expanded space will provide:

 

 

      • A multi-story entrance and modern elevator to ensure convenient access to all three floors, with after-hours access to the new Community Room.  

      • A second-floor addition that will increase the public space by over 25 percent.

      • A welcoming Living Room with a fireplace, perfect for quiet moments and reading, fulfilling the requests of senior patrons.

      • Separate dedicated spaces for young children, tweens, and teens to allow these groups to gather and enjoy the library at the same time in maximum comfort.

      • Meeting Rooms for community gatherings and Study Rooms for small groups and collaboration, all supported with technology.

      • An Innovation Zone, a versatile Makerspace for all ages to facilitate hands-on projects and advanced programming.

      • Increased public computer access including tech zones, laptop bars, ample charging outlets, and robust WIFI coverage.

      • A building infrastructure that will provide completely new and upgraded systems.

      • A new parking lot across the street that will nearly double the existing on-site spaces.  

      • Additionally, there remain 125-250 on-street parking spaces nearby.

Be on the lookout for our Grand Reopening this spring at 1601 Darby Road!
