Temporary Closure of Library's Second Floor Announced

In order to prepare the Peters Township Public Library’s new addition for the grand opening next month, a temporary closure of the second floor to library patrons has been announced. The first floor of the library will remain open, including the Children’s Department, and all programs will be held as scheduled.

The second floor will be closed beginning Monday, March 17 through Monday, March 24 due to the installation of new carpeting, and the moving of shelving, books, and furniture. The Children’s Department and first floor will remain open during this time, except for Friday, March 21 (Good Friday) and Sunday, March 23 (Easter Sunday). The projected reopen date for the second floor is Tuesday, March 25. Patrons who wish to use computers will be directed to the computers in the Children’s Department.

For patrons requiring materials located on the second floor (nonfiction, young adult books, books on CD/cassette) will be asked to fill out a request form for the item needed. Library staff will call when the item is located and ready for checkout. Study rooms on the second floor will not be available during this time period.

This scheduled closing is part of the library’s preparations for the dedication of the new addition planned for Sunday, April 13, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 2:00 p.m. followed by tours and other special programs and activities that day. All are invited to attend the festivities.
