WNPL’s Transformation: An Update and an Invitation

When we began reimagining our library over a year ago, we

asked ourselves a simple question: “How can we serve you

better?” Today, I’m excited to share that we’re approaching

a major milestone in answering that question.

If you’ve visited recently, you’ve already seen some exciting

changes. Our new privacy booths provide quiet spaces for

calls and focused work. The café area offers a welcoming spot

to meet with friends or relax with a book. The marketplace

displays showcase popular materials, and they’re proving so successful that some units

need constant restocking because items are flying off the shelves!

Currently, we are in the final planning stages of the largest phase of our facilities

improvement project to date: a complete renovation of our youth areas and significant

upgrades throughout the library.

Starting in February 2026, we will transform Coco’s Cove into a dynamic, interactive

play space for children. We will create versatile seating areas throughout the library,

from quiet study spots to collaborative spaces, and enhance our adult areas with modern,

comfortable furniture.

The project is scheduled for completion by June 2026, just in time for summer reading.

Yes, there will be some temporary inconveniences. Our normal youth areas will be

closed and temporarily relocated into the Meeting Rooms. Portions of the library will be

completely closed for about a month during construction, most likely around May 2026,

but we are carefully planning to keep essential services accessible throughout the project.

The Board has committed significant funds to the renovation project, and we have carefully

budgeted to make the most of every dollar. But with additional community support through

this year’s annual appeal, we can take these improvements even further.

These are more than building upgrades; they are investments in our community. Your

support helps create stronger early literacy opportunities for toddlers, more engaging

spaces for teens, and welcoming areas for adults to learn, work, and connect.

We’re writing a new chapter in our library’s story, together. To learn more about making a

gift or sponsorship opportunities, please visit wnpl.info/annualfund25.
