South End Library Closed for summer

The SE Branch of the BPL will close over the summer for renovations. Below is the statement from the South End Branch web page.



On June 2, 2009 the South End Branch will be closed for improvements that include removal and replacement of brick veneer from the second story to the top of the roof parapets. Additionally, a new modified bituminous roof will be installed, along with upgraded, new window systems in strategic locations. The new glazing will also improve the energy efficiency of the structure.

The construction is expected to last at least three months and during this time the branch must close to the public and the staff. During this project, please check out, hold, and return any items at any of the 26 locations of the Boston Public Library throughout the City of Boston.

The library will distribute the museum passes to nearby branches. Please call one of our other locations to inquire about the availability of museum passes.

If you have any further questions please call Christine Schonhart, Neighborhood Services Manager at 617-859-2340 or Sarah Markell, Assistant Neighborhood Services Manager at 617-859-2242.
