"Digging the new elevator shaft"
... or we will be in the new building! The existing elevator is being brought up to current standards and the awesome construction people have begun excavation on the new elevator. With the design of the new building, the old elevator will be mostly for staff use to get book carts up to the second floor, deliver supplies up to the office, and of course, for staff to use so we can raid the upstairs candy jar!
The new elevator will be for patrons to use so they can get to the second floor. Currently the second floor is slated to hold the browsing area, magazine collection, fiction collection, and a few other collections, but that could all change depending on what fits best where. Just know that the staff is hard at work making sure that this new library will be the best library we can create! Thanks to all our wonderful patrons for their patience and enthusiasm in this endeavor -- we have the best patrons ever!
