Design & Build Team Open House

Transforming Your Library to Inspire Learning and Community

Design for the Shaw/Watha T. Daniel Library renovation is complete, and we’re excited to share what’s coming next. Stop by and meet the design team to learn more about the planned improvements.

The renovation will refresh the entire building to create brighter, more welcoming spaces for all ages. The new design will bring in more natural light, update furniture and finishes throughout, and improve how patrons move through the library. Each floor will be transformed: 

• The Ground Floor will become a vibrant children’s area with colorful, nature‑inspired features; 
• The Upper Floor will include expanded teen space and enhanced adult reading and study areas; 
• The Lower Floor will feature upgraded meeting rooms, a refreshed display hall, and improved staff spaces. 
• The project also includes building‑wide updates, such as improved signage, renovated restrooms, better seating and study options, and upgrades to lighting, HVAC, and energy systems to ensure the library is comfortable and accessible for everyone. 

Visit the project page to learn more about the renovation and stay informed about library services during construction after the library's last day of service, Sunday, May 17.
