About the Closures
The Southeast branches were already slated to temporarily close for a minimum of 18 months for bond renovations in 2026. While the timeline may seem long, it reflects the scope of the improvements being made. The renovations will include significant upgrades both inside and out enhancing landscaping, sidewalks, lighting, and parking lots; improving accessibility and interior spaces such as entrances, elevators, restrooms, community rooms, children’s areas, and staff work areas; redesigning shelving and learning spaces; updating building systems like HVAC, safety, electrical, and technology; and adding new finishes, furniture, fixtures, and signage. These renovations will ensure the branches remain welcoming, accessible and modern spaces for decades to come.
Due to the City’s budget reduction, we are temporarily closing a few months earlier than anticipated. This early closure allows us the opportunity to meet our budget goals and keep our staff employed. Please know we didn’t take this decision lightly.
