Library groundbreaking celebration

Posted on December 22, 2011 by Staff

The Town of Chapel Hill celebrated the Chapel Hill Public Library Expansion Project at a groundbreaking ceremony last Saturday.
Chapel Hill residents approved a $16.23 million bond in November 2003 to pay for an expansion of the library. The current 27,000-square-foot library was built in 1994.
The construction project is expected to be completed in January 2013 and will more than double the library’s size to 62,500 square feet. It will provide 5,200 square feet of public meeting space, including two large meeting rooms, two large conference rooms, a quiet room and several study rooms.
The Chapel Hill Public Library is operating in a temporary location next to Cameron’s in University Mall.
