Ground Level Greetings

A kiosk greets patrons on the ground level with maps to guide them to desired locations within the newly renovated library.

Our Children's Department is conveniently located on the ground level and is designed for our youngest patrons to enjoy books, computers, and activity areas.

The creation of this wonderful window seat is most inviting!

Views from the Upper Level

The upper floor is home to the Adult & Teen Department, including plenty of places to relax with the newspaper, magazine, or a good book!

Welcome!

The Circulation Desk is located in the middle of the ground floor. Movies, Music and More is conveniently located adjacent to this area for ease of check-out.

This is an inside shot of the "Materials Return." The drop-off is now located in the alley on the south face of the library, allowing patrons to return materials from their car. Materials drop into two boxes in the Circulation Department's nonpublic space indoors, ending the need to bring materials in from a parking lot drop box.
