Design Renovation at Wanaque Public Library
The Wanaque Public Library is approaching a special schedule to make way for a long planned design renovation of the upstairs Adult Reading Room. The Library will be open during its regular schedule throughout the construction HOWEVER we will offer only minimal services through the downstairs Children's Reading Room. Beginning Monday, March 1, 2010, the upstairs Adult Reading Room will be closed to the public entirely. On that day, March 1, 2010, the Children's Reading Room ( downstairs ) will begin to offer minimal services to both children and adults. All public entry to the Library will take place through the elevator or the south-side stairwell to the basement. There will be no public access to the upstairs floor for the course of Phase One Renovation.
From the Children's Reading Room ( downstairs ) Wanaque Library staff will offer the usual services however, there will be no access to adult book shelves or the Wanaque Public Library adult book collection except for the best sellers and new non-fiction. That is, the NEW BOOKS shelf WILL be available downstairs with both fiction bestsellers and new non-fiction for your borrowing. All requests for interlibrary loans from other PALS Plus County libraries will be processed for you at your request by Wanaque staff as usual, but from computers in the Children's Reading Room. All your books returned from interlibrary loan may still be returned to Wanaque Public Library for delivery as usual and you may still pick up all your loan requests here in the Children's Room.
For the duration of Phase One Renovation, all adult public access computers with Internet access WILL be available in the Children's Reading Room for adult use. There will be six public access computers with Internet access available for adult use and two special public access computers with Internet access reserved for the needs and use of children only.
This schedule and plan will be in effect from Monday, March 1, 2010 through the week of April 19, 2010. If all goes as planned, the Adult Reading Room will reopen with design renovation complete during the week of April 19, 2010.
All programs will of course be greatly adapted to this Phase One Renovation schedule. However, AARP tax prep for seniors of moderate means WILL proceed in the Board Room as usual with entrance through the elevator. There will be NO Storytime or children's crafts during Phase One Renovation. Regular Storytime and children's crafts will resume in spring 2010.
Please call Library Director Richard Mariconda if you have questions and be sure to check for updates here on the Borough of Wanaque Municipal Website.
