Phase Two: The New ADA Compliant Entry Plaza!

A library construction grant from Oklahoma Department of Libraries makes really exciting things possible for the library. The entry doors will soon offer a new smile to patrons as the floor is leveled, doors are raised, and a wheelchair accessible ramp and new stairs are installed. The new entry will have new walls and floor and the original ceiling height will be restored. A second set of doors will create a much needed buffer against the Oklahoma wind and weather and should make the climate in the entry much easier to control.

During demolition and construction, parking will be behind the building and on the field between the gym and the library. Access to the temporary parking will be from the back lot. The book drop is still accessible.
