Taking Shape



This photo shows metal studs framing administrative offices that will be located in the lower level of the renovated library.
This captures the old "Main Entrance" on Union Street that has now been sealed off. The stairway visble to the left will be removed once the new stairway is installed connecting all three levels.

Changes for the "back door" entrance


Prior to this renovation, a staff-only "back door" was located off the east parking lot that required staff to go down a ramp prior to entering the building. When the renovation is complete, there will be a new entrance for patrons that will be off the east parking lot at ground level; a ramp will be located inside the building with a more gradual incline. The red framework is an indicator of the new floor height at the east entrance and the indoor ramp.
