Renovations At Peoria Main Library
Will Close September 4th - Reopen to the Public September 9
 
Peoria Main Library is undergoing interior renovations and will briefly close to the public September 4th.   The library will re-open Saturday, September 9th.  
 
Although the library building at Peoria Main will be closed, the book drop will be open and available.   Patrons will still be able to receive library services from Sunrise Mountain Library and from the Peoria Public Library website.
 
During the closure, the library will be undergoing routine enhancements including new furniture, carpet cleaning and the reconfiguration of several key areas of the library.
"We haven't updated the Peoria Main Library for a number of years, and it is one of the busiest libraries in the community," said Nathaniel Washburn, Peoria Library & Cultural Services Manager. "This renovation project allows us to make improvements to the library to enhance the experience for our patrons. We can't wait to share the new and improved library with the public."
 
The library will reopen at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday, September 9th. For questions, please contact the Peoria Main Library at 623-773-7555 or Sunrise Mountain at 623-773-8650.
