After a six week closure for refurbishments Ballard Library is set to re-open today (Monday, June 20) at 10 a.m.
The 11-year-old branch closed on May 9 so that the worn carpeting could be replaced. The Library also consolidated staff service desks and added comfortable seating, tables with electrical outlets and self-checkout stations.
Check out some of the refurbishments in Seattle Public Library’s tweet:
