May 13th, May 13th, May 13th!

Any guesses as to when we'll hold our Grand Re-Opening?  You got it!  Thursday, May 13th, from 3 - 7 PM, here at the Bethlehem Branch Library.  The whole library will be open for use (at long last), and there will be art on display from local artists and writers.  Of course, there will be free snacks, too!!!

In the meantime, here are the most recent renovations.

How much is a picture worth?

This is the picture post.  It speaks for itself. :)
First wall gone.
Second wall gone.
Children's shelves.
Fancy end on the children's shelves.
Computers in their new location.
And DVDs moved.
Easy Squeezie...
...all the Easy books and the Board Books got squeezed into the Juvenile and Juvenile Non-Fiction while we shift shelves.
New Book display for Juvenile fiction.

Hope you enjoyed the photos...more to come!

We've Started at Last!

The renovations to expand into the other half of the building started Thursday!  The estimte is 1-3 weeks before it's finished.  So watch out for moving books, misplaced shelves, and various other forms of organized chaos.

Expect the "Grand Re-Opening" sometime at the end of April or the beginning of May.  It will be on a Thursday, from 3-7 p.m. and there will be local art and light refreshments served. We'll keep pictures posted as the renovation continues.

The sheetrock has been removed on the empty side.  You can see the computer wiring on the left - it will be moving to the current "Easy" section.  The sheetrock-free bit on the right has been partiall cut through to our side, but not yet removed.


They've got their supplies ready...we can't wait!
