As you can see from the photos, it takes a LOT of stuff to run a busy library like ours.
We’re rapidly approaching WRAPPING UP Phase 1 of our interior renovation project and preparing for Phase 2.

In Phase 1 we’ve been tackling the public spaces.
Phase 2 will focus on the: staff work areas, meeting room, kitchen area, staff restroom, and storage areas.
A HUGE THANKS goes out to the City of Central City crew for helping us move everything out to the main areas of the library, in preparation for Phase 2. They were also a huge help when we had to move everything to the back, so all of our new flooring could be installed.
We’re also VERY THANKFUL for the volunteers that have been coming in to help our staff dust/straighten shelves, books, etc., so we’ll be able to open soon.
