Renovation Week One Comes to a Close

It's the end of week one of our 2nd floor renovation and so far so good. The demolition crew has been pretty amazing and they definitely prove out the "power in numbers" concept. They seem to move around as one; clearing, removing, relocating and storing in the blink of an eye! Communications among the contractor, staff of the architectural firm and library staff are running high and that's just how we want it to be so that we get the results we need and want.

Yesterday work was done to prepare for complete demo of some of the small rooms in the AV area. Those rooms are now divided off by protective plastic to minimize traveling of dust and small debris as the walls come down and, of course, to alert folks to stay away from the area. The good news is that service in the AV area is not impacted at all so please come in to continue to browse and check out items of interest to you.

Speaking of items in the AV area, in light of the stunning news of Michael Jackson's death, I want to mention that we do own several CDs featuring his music so if you want to become acquainted or reacquainted with his songs, remember the Library as an option to do so.

We continue to be excited about the outcome of the renovation activities and I'll be sharing continuing progress in the weeks to come.
