The Children’s Collection of the Dansville Public Library is now available for use at the former Reinholtz building at 167 Main Street. Hours for the Annex are Wednesday through Friday, 10-12 and 2-6 p.m. Saturday hours are noon until 4 p.m.
The first step in the Library’s building expansion project will be the removal of a 1937 addition on the east side of the Shepard building. Walls of rooms housing staff operations will also be demolished at the same time, and the shelving units attached to those walls, on the other side, will be removed. All these changes necessitated moving staff forward in the building, and and required placing a notable portion of the collection in storage. including adult non fiction books, reference materials, and young adult books.
To make room for staff and the most popular books, adult nonfiction, reference books, the children’s collection and young adult books were boxed and labeled. Through the generosity of owners Roger and Marleen Mark, the Library was able to rent the space at 167 Main Street and the children’s collection was moved, unboxed, and shelved in its new location.
