A New Library in Viroqua: It's Been a Long Time Coming

McIntosh Memorial Library

Work begins on Viroqua library. (La Crosse Tribune, 8/10/2013)

Excerpt: Library director Trina Erickson said the groundbreaking marks 56 months — nearly five years — since the library’s committee voted to form a task force to consider building a new facility. 

The new library will cost approximately $3.5 million. Details on interior and exterior finishes for the facility are still being worked out, and there is no exact completion date yet for the project.
