Last week, your local library bloggers had the pleasure of going to the construction site - we even had to wear hard hats! Although it was great fun to see the bustle of activity and exciting to know that things are progressing relatively smoothly, it was also a little sad to see something that has been part of the community for so long torn up. It was kind of like visiting a friend in the hospital after cosmetic surgery - they don't look very good now, but in the end they will be more beautiful!
The grade beams are now complete, the elevator towers are complete and concrete is starting to be poured in some areas - someone even had the audacity to carve our initials in the wet cement!
This week we are focusing on some of the people who are bringing your new Richland Public Library back to life. The men and women working on-site every day are our heroes (at least if they finish on time) and we would like to thank them for all their hard work.
