The Centerville Library is now open as phase two construction gets underway. While the building isn’t fully finished, visitors are already enjoying fresh study spaces and updated areas throughout the library. Several meeting rooms are available, and the 12-seat conference room will be ready soon. Patrons can pick up their holds to the left of the main desk. We’re excited to welcome the community back and appreciate your patience as improvements continue. Construction will start on the teen area, more meeting rooms, the Community Room, the Storytime Room, and the relocation of our makerspace – Creativity Commons.
