tHE lIBRARY IS EXPANDING!

​     The Four Star Public Library District is excited to announce that it will be expanding to add on a program/meeting room with help from the United States Department of Agriculture’s Community Facilities Grant and Loans program.  The library has saved funds in a Special Reserve Fund for almost half of the expansion project.  With the USDA’s grant and loan funds, we will be able to bring this project to fruition.  Klingner and Associates designed the new addition and you can view both the interior and exterior renderings at the library!
     The new addition will add on an additional 1800 square feet with enough room to comfortably seat 50 people for a program or meeting.  We will also shelve our local history items in the new addition.  A kitchenette, large storage closet, an additional restroom, tables and chairs, and an outside patio will also be included.  We will be looking for additional funding for new technology to add to the new addition, such as laptop computers, a smart screen, and a projector.
     Currently, the Four Star Public Library Foundation is having a quilt raffle.  Tickets can be purchased at the library or from library board members.  The quilt is displayed at the library and the drawing will take place September 30th.  The library hopes to begin excavation on this project this fall!
