FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE                                                            THURSDAY, MAY 17, 2018

 

NORTH BAY - The North Bay Public Library announced today, access to the Audio-Visual Department will be unavailable beginning Monday June 4, 2018, lasting up to 4 months.

Library CEO and Chief Librarian Ravil Veli said, “Kenalex Construction was recently awarded a contract to undertake a rehabilitation project beginning June 11th for the ceiling, pipes and lighting of the Audio-Visual Department”.

During the project there will be no public access to the Audio Visual Department.  A selection of the most popular audiovisual materials including DVDs, CDs, Video games and Talking Books will be available for browsing on the main floor of the library with checkout at the Adult Services desk.

“We understand this may be an inconvenience and we are making every effort to ensure the most popular audiovisual materials will be available to patrons for the duration of the project”, said Veli.

In preparation for construction the audiovisual service desk, and area, will close on Monday June 4, 2018 to allow for a transition of materials. Select audiovisual materials will be available on the main floor of the library starting Wednesday June 6.

“We are exploring options for the transfer of a select number of internet access computers to the main and or mezzanine floors as well”, added Veli.

Other areas closed due to this project are the Auditorium and the Boardroom.

Project updates and information regarding the availability of materials will be posted on the North Bay Public Library website and through social media.
