Menomonie Public Library Closed 3 Weeks for Improvements


Link to May 6 Eau Claire Leader Telegram article, "Menomonie library closing for three weeks, getting new carpeting".

Excerpt:
A moving company will move the shelves and books and will have a truck on site for storage in case there isn't enough space to keep the books and shelves in the building.

The plan is to move half the library books and shelves, lay the carpet there, and then move the other half.

Another part of the project will restore the lobby floor, which is made of concrete and rock but has blackened over time. The floor will be ground and polished to bring back the original shine, Stark said.

The interior of the library will be restructured to provide more space in the children's area and create a separate space for teens.
