The Southwest Library will undergo a carpet replacement from February 13 to March 10. During this time, the library will open to the public Monday to Friday from 3 pm to normal closing hours. The schedule is as follows:
 
Phase 1
Feb 13: The library shelves on the East side of the library will be moved to Mainstreet.

Mar 10: Final adjustments of furniture by the Maintenance team.


Linda is working to notify patrons that have room bookings during the close and with our community partners that use the room for tax preparation help and job services. Also, you will notice that many stacks and portions of Mainstreet have blue painter's tape with numbers on them. Do not remove these; they are used to help place the stacks in their temporary locations during the project. 

Staff schedules are coming. Please talk with your supervisor if you are interested in taking PTO or being deployed to another branch.
