Why a new building?
the library is not handicap-accessible
the inefficient, inadequate, outdated and costly heating, cooling and electrical systems fail to moderate indoor temperatures
computer usage has skyrocketed and users often have to wait for access
Why a new building?
the restrooms are completely inadequate
space limitations mean children who want to attend special reading activities can’t always be accommodated
there’s a definite lack of quiet reading and study areas
Why a new building?
no storage space for back issues of magazines exists
space for current technologies such as CDs, DVDs or more audio and video tapes is insufficient
Community Pride!
