Link to April 6 Beloit Daily News article, "Library patrons stock up on books".Excerpts: An hour after the Beloit Public Library on Pleasant Street opened for the last time Saturday morning, patrons were bustling in and out, many carrying stacks of books in their arms.
It was the last day of operations at the downtown location as library staff prepared for the move to the new, more spacious location in the Eclipse Center. Because staff need a lot of time to move everything, patrons were asked to check out as many books as they could. As a bonus, books aren't due back until May 4 or later. The library will be closed for three weeks while employees move to the new location.
An open house and ribbon cutting ceremony will be held from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. April 25 at the new library, 605 Eclipse Boulevard. Regular library services will resume April 27 from 9:30 a.m.-9 p.m.
