Coupeville Library Expansion--Week 30

Week 30 has been another week of exciting changes at the Library.  Stacks and wall shelving has been installed, the sliding door between the main library area and the Community Room has been installed, windows have been cleaned, and landscaping work outside has begun.   The photos that follow show some of the progress. 


Stacks were installed early in the week.  Open areas remain where computers will be installed for use by those visiting the Library



This photo is a view into the Children's room showing shelving installed along the wall.


Another view of the stacks looking from the Adult Reading Room into the staff work area. 


The sliding door separating the Community Room from the main area of the Library finally arrived!  In this photo, Ken, Dan and Darren work to install the large door panels.   This view is from the Community Room looking toward main library space. 


Installation of  the sliding door separating the Community Room and main library is complete in this photo.  The photo is taken from the main library looking toward the Community Room.  The heavy door slides very easily on rollers riding on a track at the bottom of the door.  


Outside, a walkway from the back of the Library to the open field west of the Library has been completed.  Grass on either side of the walkway will complete landscaping in this area.   The walkway will provide easy access to the Farmer's market during the summer months. 


In this photo one of the windows is being cleaned.   This lady agreed to the photo provided she didn't have to look at the camera!


And finally this photo shows the hardworking committee that has been meeting almost weekly to monitor and provide guidance as the project progressed.   From left to right,  Darren Leyenhorst and Ken Helms, Faber Construction, General Contractor, Jeanne Crisp, Sno Isle Libraries, Stig Carlson, Architect, and Jim Theel, Community representative for the project.   Missing in this photo are Rebecca Loney, Sno Isle Libraries and John Bolte, Community Representative.
