Notice: Coalgate Library Temporary Closure for Upgrades

Exciting news! Crews have arrived at the Coalgate Library to begin upgrading our lighting to energy-efficient LED lights. This improvement will make the library brighter, more welcoming, and even more enjoyable for your visits!

During this work, the library will be temporarily closed and is expected to reopen by Thursday. We appreciate your patience and can’t wait to welcome you back to a brighter, better library very soon.
