The upgrade aims to create a more family-friendly, accessible space with kids and teens on the same floor, refreshed public areas, and new program spaces. While the main branch is shut down, services won’t vanish — the John L. Dart Library on King Street will remain open for full services, and a temporary location at Morrison Drive is set to launch soon, offering browsing, computers, and staff support. The library promises to keep the community informed every step of the way — because this long-awaited overhaul is designed to build a better, brighter future for reading, learning, and connection.
