Your Oakley Branch will close temporarily for a renovation starting Sept. 26 at 6 p.m. A welcoming new space will replace the current one! During the closure, all holds will be sent to the Hyde Park Branch, or your preferred location.
The Oakley Branch Library project is a strategic investment.
As a Scheduled Maintenance Project, the Library’s Facilities Department has identified that the branch is in need of HVAC. A Strategic Investment is recommended to enhance service. A process led by Library staff with community input will identify how this investment should be made.
Elements to Look Forward to:
- Replacing the end of lifecycle 35+ year old mechanical and electrical systems
- New finishes throughout
- New furniture throughout
- Refreshed staff space
- Expanded children's area
- Dedicated teen area
- Updated meeting room
