Renovation 2025-2026
Please respect signs, barrels, cones, etc. and stay out of work areas!
Patrons entering active construction areas constitute a major safety risk and could force the closure of the library to the public during renovations.
Main entrance closure:
The library’s main entrance is closed until further notice. During this time, patrons must use the temporary entrance on the side of the building along Jefferson Street. Staff will temporarily relocate our main circulation desk functions to better assist patrons entering the building in this alternate location.
Some collections in storage
Due to space limitations, staff have had to make difficult decisions as to which collections will remain browsable and which will go into storage until the end of Phase 2 (estimated: May, 2026). Library staff will be happy to request material from other libraries during this time via our weekday van delivery service. Collections in storage include:
- Audio Books
- Biographies
- Board Games
- Local History
- Music CDs
- Paperbacks
- Mysteries
- Sci-Fi
- Westerns
- Young Adult Graphic Novels
- Young Adult Nonfiction
Remaining adult & young adult collections will move to the lower level at the end of Phase 1 (estimated: end of January, 2026).
Renovation work continues on the converted children’s wing, circulation desk, and entry. Much exterior work is done, including a new paved walkway from the Northwestern Trail winding behind the library and ending at Silver Creek patio. Watch for more changes!
