Children's Room Addition Project
We have some exciting news to share - we are planning an expansion at the library! Our children's collection and area are exploding at the seams, and we have decided to create extra space through the addition of a new children's room. This room will have more space for new books and children's programs, as well as a STEM corner.
Update: We are making progress on our children's room addition! The room has recently been painted. We are awaiting ceiling, electrical and carpeting work to be completed. New bookshelves are on order! We are hoping for a fall 2020 opening.
While we have raised a good portion of our need through grants and donations, we still need several thousand dollars to complete the project. We humbly ask you to consider giving to this worthwhile project.
