Renovation 2025-2026

Main entrance closure:

The library’s main entrance will close on September 29, 2025. During this time, patrons will be redirected to 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.

Renovation work on what will be become the new children’s wing is underway. Outside changes are happening as well.  A new walkway from the Northwestern Trail winding behind the library and ending at the steps leading down to Silver Creek has been added.  Work is underway on the outdoor patio going in on the Jefferson Street side of the building.  Work will begin soon on the curbing outside the main entrance.  The circulation area will also be under construction soon.  Watch for more changes!
