What's Happening?

We are still in the process of working with our architect to finalize a design for the addition of a program room and extra library space. We do have a preliminary drawing of what it may look like on the exterior. We are excited that the architect we chose is local and familiar with this project. We all understand the importance of keeping the integrity of the building while also making it aesthetically appealing.

Library Update:

Our plans for the library addition and remodel are progressing.  We continue to work with Pelds Engineering to design an addition that will bring a program room and also more library space to our current site.  We are also working to make better use of the existing building.  We have talked with City Council and the Dallas Center Veterans to stay on track with moving the Veteran's Memorial Monument this summer to a more visible location and to make room for the library addition. We look forward to fundraising soon to keep our project progressing.  We appreciate all the support we have received throughout this process and are excited to see the plans coming together to have more space and programs on-site!!

The Library will be providing a bus to the Brenton Arboretum for the field trip on July 25.  We will be loading the bus and leaving at 9:45 a.m. for the Brenton Arboretum.
We'll be learning about which bugs have become NASA astronauts and why scientists are interested in sending bugs into outer space.  Then we'll go on a short insect safari to catch and study our own bugs!
We will load the bus at 11:00 and be back to the library by 11:15.
We need to know how many passengers so everyone needs to sign up for the bus if you plan to ride.  Please let us know if you plan to attend and how many.  Thank you.

We will be having the therapy pets join us for the Summer Reading Program. Your child will have the opportunity to sign up for a time slot and be able to read to a pet for 10 to 15 minutes.  This has been a wonderful program and we feel honored that we are able to continue to offer this to our young people. 

Contact the library to sign up.  Thanks.
