The purpose of this study is to assess this existing library facility and evaluate the viability of both a renovation with a building addition project or construction of a larger and a more updated central library facility in the same or nearby location. Initial efforts of this study consisted of meetings with library staff to gather relevant data and discuss the library’s current and future needs. Meetings were then conducted with patrons, business leaders and community stakeholders to solicit input on library usage and desires for this facility. The design team also toured the facility and performed technical assessments to document existing conditions and current space usage.
