New Lights in the Reading Rooms

Thanks to the generosity of the Friends of the Library, we have new lights in the Reading Rooms. The new lights make the room much brighter and more inviting. The lights also highlight the beauty of the ceiling and murals which were difficult to see with the older lights. Thank you Friends!

The Stained Glass Chandeliers are back!

The stained glass chandeliers on the mezzanine have been installed. Thanks to the amazing talents of Scott Ouderkirk, the chandeliers have been cleaned and repaired.
