Changes & More Carpet Photos

Before and After Comparison of the (former)Rainbow Room and what will soon be The Library's Rainforest Room. We have plans to paint a rainforest scene on this wall, but first we had to cover the old rainbow, so we took the opportunity to do so while we were closed. If you are interested in volunteering to help with the Rainbow to Rainforest Project please contact Maureen Anderson at 717-273-7624 ext. 209 or email her at anderson@lclibs.org


Also check out the Before and After in our Vietnamese & Language Sections. This is the area of the library where you can find books in Vietnamese, materials for readers who are just learning the English language, or materials for patrons who are interested in learning a new language such as German, Spanish, Hindi, etc. We painted it with a color called Sage Clary to compliment the new table and chairs seen in both pictures. We welcome patrons to seek this area for study or wireless connectivity.










We've been open for business for a week since the new carpet was installed! Check out some of the pictures from when we were closed and see staff member Peggy Shirk putting books back on the children's non-fiction shelves - it was quite a task! Many thanks to all our volunteers and staff members who went over and beyond the call of duty to make this project work. Also check out the newly carpeted Story-time Room and children's room - soon to be Rainforest Room!































































And finally many thanks to all the great workers from Fritz Leiss Carpet Gallery who installed our great new carpet - it looks fabulous! And thanks to Woodland Contractors who supplied us with the manpower to move tons of furniture around!
