The local library is taking a brief hiatus in mid-December. Specifically, the Lewisville Public Library will shutter its doors on Wednesday, December 17, and Thursday, December 18, to allow for the replacement of its HVAC system. According to an announcement on the City of Lewisville website, this closure is essential for upgrading the facilities and will affect even the drive-up book return, which won't be accessible at all on the first day of work.
Library officials are working to ensure that this temporary closure causes the least amount of disruption possible. To somewhat lessen the burden, due dates for library materials have been adjusted so nothing will fall due while the library remains closed. The same latitude has been granted to hold pick-up expiration dates, which have also been extended. No crane-needing, book-returning hassles on that Wednesday, folks. The drive-up book return is slated to throw open its slots once the site has been deemed safe for vehicles again.
In a twist of good news for those who were planning a library visit during those days, the library is expected to resume normal operations promptly at 9 a.m. on Friday, December 19. This means the community will have to go without its local hub of books and learning for a scant two days. Residents can breathe a sigh of relief knowing their routines will be back to the usual so quickly.
