Montgomery County Public Library refurbishment projects are a Capital Improvement Program (CIP), known as the Library Refurbishment Level of Effort. Approved by the County Council and the County Executive, these CIP funds support significant improvements for at least one library a year.The librarywill be closed while work is done in the building because it is not safe for the public or staff to be present during demolition or construction.
The specific work for each library depends on the needs of the facility and community, but work that is similar for each project includes:
During a building’s closure, the collections and staff at any of our 20 other locations can serve you in all the ways you have come to expect from your favorite location. In addition, we have digital services such as e-books, databases, and language learning tools that can be used 24/7 on your computer or phone. For help with your account while your favorite branch is closed for renovation, call any open library branch or visit us online.
