Interim Lakewood Pierce County Library
|
|
|
The interim Lakewood Pierce County Library remains a top priority for the Pierce County Library System.
At the Library's Board of Trustees meeting on Sept. 13, the Board approved purchase orders for the interim library (preliminary rendering of the interim library pictured above). Those included using the State of Washington's purchasing contract to buy furniture for people to sit, read, study, and gather; and shelving for books, movies, magazines, and other materials.
Some furniture from the Lakewood Library on Wildaire Road will be reused in the new building, with the addition of new furniture to provide comfortable and inviting spaces. Modern and flexible shelving will be installed to give greater accessibility.
These images provide a preliminary look at some design and layout ideas for the interim library.
