The library is getting a facelift!
RAYMOND — A new workspace and circulation desk will soon grace the library.
An anonymous donor has provided the funds to reorganize our office space and create a new circulation desk. This donation is being made in memory of a family that has been part of the Raymond community for more than 50 years.
The circulation desk will be custom built into two sections to improve patron service. The walls on either side of the current office door will be removed; new, open workspaces and storage cabinetry will be installed.
Another change is planned to improve computer workstations. New computer wiring will be run to provide computer access in the new children’s space and allow our adult computers to be moved to the front of the building. This change will add quiet work areas for our patrons.
Renovations will begin in February. We will keep you updated as we move forward and will be providing you with more information on our donor family and construction partners.
Challenge grant offered to help build accessible restroom
RAYMOND — The library’s current restroom also requires renovation. Thanks to the generosity of another anonymous donor, a $2,000 challenge grant has been made available to assist us in fixing this issue.
Simply put, the donor will match dollar for dollar your donations up to $2,000. You donate $100, the grant matches it with $100.
By working together to meet this challenge, we will be able to provide an accessible facility for our patrons.
Sound too good to be true? There is a catch! If we do not raise the $2,000 to meet the challenge, we do not receive any funds. The challenge grant is exactly that — a challenge to our library community to pull together to accomplish this goal.
