Approximately 100 people attended the Truckee Library’s grand re-opening Tuesday to celebrate a facility refresh with new flooring, paint, and furniture.
The public was able to view the library’s stained glass by artist Robert Boeddiker, which previously hung in the library’s West-facing window. As part of the library’s refresh project, the stained glass was restored by Rainbow Glass of Sacramento and now hangs in a lightbox over the mantle.
In addition to the refurbished art, the library features new furniture and carpet, an updated floor plan, and new shelving. The updated floor plan allows for an enlarged teen space and enhanced program options in the children’s section.
“The library looks wonderful and we are so glad to have the public back in enjoying this space,” said Nevada County Librarian Nick Wilczek, adding that he would like to thank the library staff, the Town of Truckee, and the Truckee Friends of the Library for their support.
District 5 Supervisor Hardy Bullock echoed Wilczek's gratitude. "Thank you to our team who work to make our library a special place. The refresh is complete and the library awaits a visit from you!”
