Ebooks, Netflix, and Library Expansion (Part 14, Cuyohoga County Public Library)

Solon library expansion to begin this summer. (Chagrin Solon Sun, 4/18/2011)

Excerpt:    Solon Architects are still working on drawings and “costing out” of a proposed expansion project at the city’s library, with the construction expected to begin over the summer.

“We hope to be done by early 2012,” said Lane Edwards, the Cuyahoga County Public Library’s Solon branch manager. “We’re basically putting a roof over the open-air courtyard to expand the children’s department.”

That will also mean more space in the lobby, as well as the enclosure of the teen section, which might cut down on some of the noise in the rest of the library, Edwards said.
