New location for outdoor book drops

Things are really starting to get going on our renovation project! On Friday, our exterior book drops were relocated from the traffic circle near our entrance to the rear of the parking lot in anticipation of our new temporary entrance (which should be open in a couple weeks). Don't worry about the orange silt fence around our tree in the traffic circle... the tree (which came from a seedling of Athens' famous "Tree that owns itself") will be just fine. The traffic circle will be closed off to reroute a storm line as part of the construction project.

Another thing to think about: Parking! With part of our parking lot closed off to accommodate construction equipment, please note that overflow parking is available at the soccer fields next door. It's the next entrance off Dudley Drive from the Library's driveway.

Construction has officially started!

The construction trailer was set up on Tuesday, May 24. The project is under way!



Within the next few weeks, we will have a new temporary entrance at the rear of the building, and the front entrance will be closed. Book drops will be relocated to the rear of the building as well.
