Bethel Public Library Capital Campaign
This is an exciting time for the Bethel Public Library! Not long after successfully opening our main floor, we are launching a capital campaign to raise the $3 million needed to complete the Library renovation. Although the first floor is all-new, it does not allow us to provide the full range of services we would like to offer our patrons. When completed, the building will have a finished second floor, a renovated public area in the Seelye House, and a modified first floor. This will significantly improve the Library’s ability to serve the community. The planned renovations will provide for:
- Community Room for Adult programming and public use
- Children’s Programming Room
- Public access to the Local History Collection
- Comfortable, well-lit seating area for reading newspapers and magazines
- Quiet private study areas
- Spacious Teen Library with natural lighting, comfortable seating and room for programming
- More computers for public use
- Spacious Technology Lab to accommodate larger public computer classes
- More comfortable seating and study space throughout the library for all ages
- Storage for Friends of the Library book collection (for Book Sales)
- For the complete plans click here.
