I am happy to report that here at the Mini B, we are Busy Bees, so I know that I have missed a few weeks. But I am also happy to say things are continuing to progress with the project, with
many loose ends being sewn up. We are
unsure what to call the space and have resorted to the new/old building.
In our new/old building, the lighting is being installed,
shelving has been ordered and, as you know the flooring is completed. The space is starting to look less like a
warehouse. Many thanks go to Town
Facilities who installed our new circulation desk. It was not an easy task, as the furnishing
itself was very heavy and with limited room, we had to find the right
spot! But now, we can’t wait for
everyone to see it!
You might have noticed too driving past, that the outside of
our building has changed dramatically. Old shutters have been replaced. But more noticeable, the large evergreens in the front of the building are gone! It
is my understanding they will be replaced with something a bit smaller and slow
growing. Inside the building it is
strange to be able to see out of the front windows. You may also note that the large bush that
was under our flag (next to the bench) has also gone. This bush has been my nemesis and I was not sorry to see it go.
As I said, at the Mini B. we are very busy; Summer Reading is going strong. In the few
minutes we sometimes have to spare, we are making a collection map. In other words, trying to figure out what
goes where and how it will fit!
We hope that soon we will be ready to start set up and moving! We are all ready to return 'home'.
Until next week,
