Foundation work at all three library sites is well underway. The goal is to complete foundations for all buildings in March and commence preliminary framing work by early April. In addition, various staff now are engaged in other aspects of the project: Charles Hutchins (IT Director) is responsible for networking and technology procurements and installations, Amy Martin (Outreach Manager) is managing furniture selections and purchases, Al Perea (Facilities Superintendent) is supervising shelving and building appliances, and Teresa Valenti (Technical Services/Collection Development Director) is overseeing selection of the opening-day collections including public-use computers and tablets. The projects are on track for the new libraries to open to the public by autumn this year.
