Lincoln City Libraries officials have announced that Bennett Martin Public Library near 14th and ‘N” Street will be closed from February 14 through February 16 for a carpet replacement project on the first floor.
The library will reopen February 17. Ryan Wieber, Director of Lincoln City Libraries, says the decision to close the library for three days is part of their ongoing commitment to provide patrons with improved access to information and learning. He says the replacement of the carpeting is a necessary step to ensure the longevity and quality of facilities.
“We understand that this closure may inconvenience some of our valued patrons, and we apologize for any disruption this may cause. However, we assure you that this temporary closure will result in a more comfortable and inviting library space for everyone to enjoy,” Wieber says.
While the library is closed patrons are encouraged to use digital resources available through the website. Any items due during the closure will have their due dates extended and holds will remain available for pickup upon reopening.
All other city libraries will be open regular hours.
