Twin Lakes Library reopens Monday. (MyKenoshaCounty.com, 3/2/2012. Link is not a direct hit.)
Excerpt: The library has almost doubled in size, from 3,800 sq. feet to 6,300 sq. ft. and along with the Subway restaurant, they are the only two tenants of the building. Walls went down, ceilings went higher, carpeting was laid, paint was applied, and several new restrooms were added, including a baby station in the new youth section of the library. There are now private meeting rooms, a break room for employees and much more storage than before.
The library has added a dedicated computer area, with nine new computers, free for all to use with a library card and a password. There is a two-hour limit on the computers. The traffic patterns have changed thanks to a new configuration of shelving and bibliomaniacs will find more breathing room in the stacks, making browsing much more relaxing then before.
The children’s area is tucked in a brightly lit area that has its own miniature chairs and tables, perfect for future art projects. The youth librarian will be stationed at the entrance to make sure little readers get the help they need.
