Much progress has been made since the last posting. The new furniture for the building will be delivered late in November. Staff will be returning next week to Quince Orchard from the branches to which they have temporarily been relocated during the refresh process. The staff workspace has been completely redesigned. Quince Orchard library staff will begin stocking the shelves and setting up the service desks in preparation for reopening the branch.
The current estimate is that the Quince Orchard branch will open in mid-December. Please watch the library website for the official announcement of the grand reopening date.
Here are a few of the many new improvements to look forward to once we reopen:
- The public restrooms have been completely redone.
 |
| Restroom baby changing station, showing new wall and floor tile |
- The circulation and information service desks have been relocated to be closer together and to provide enhanced coordinated services to the public.
 |
| Combined information and circulation service desks, showing new carpeting. |
- The interior of the library has been completely repainted, with new carpet and tile floors.
 |
| New carpet tiles in main library |
 |
| New tile floor in the branch meeting room |
- The exterior of the branch and the grounds and parking lot have been refurbished
 |
| Bench with new bike rack at branch entrance |
We think our customers will love the results of the refresh and are looking forward to opening and serving you in the near future.
