The roof of the Bazan Branch Library is getting a much-needed makeover, forcing its doors to shut temporarily while repairs are underway, a necessary inconvenience for bookworms of the 78207. The San Antonio Public Library announced the start of the construction on April 29, with an early summer completion on the cards, owing to damage from a hailstorm two years back, the Library's affliction until now.

During the makeover, SAPL patrons will need to seek out alternative haunts as complete library services at the Bazan Branch, including Wi-Fi in the parking lot and the book drop, are going offline to give the work crews elbow room for materials and construction tasks, the sapling of inconvenience in a garden of literary cultivation that is the library's network. According to a city announcement, library-goers are directed to nearby branches including Collins Garden Branch Library.

For full library service, bibliophiles can also swing by the Central Library, San Pedro Branch Library, and Memorial Branch Library, a trio of locales for uninterrupted reading and research. The full list of operational SAPL locations remains accessible on the library's official website; the hospitality of its cyber halls remains open to patrons left in the lurch by Bazan's temporary shuttering.

The updates are part of the Public Library's crusade to ensure patrons enjoy top-tiered services.
