GRETNA TEMPORARY FACILITY
CLOSED
TO MAKE WAY FOR NEW LIBRARY CONSTRUCTION
The Gretna Library Temporary
Facility is closed so workers can finish building the new Gretna Library.
Workers removed the temporary facility to build the new parking lot.
Construction on the new Gretna Library
will finish soon. Until it opens, users can go to the West
Bank Regional Library in Harvey (click on link for info and a map).
If you have checked out books or other items from the Gretna Library
Temporary Facility, please return them to the West Bank Regional Library.

TERRYTOWN LIBRARY
CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS
The Terrytown Library
is closed for extensive renovations.
The new and improved look
will include a more modern design
on the inside and out. There will
be more computers
and a special section for teens. We are adding
a new reading area so users can come to the library, get comfortable,
and stay a while. More Spanish-language
resources are also on the way.
Councilman Chris Roberts
provided the funding
for renovations to the 35-year-old building and
the nearby Golden Age Center. Along with the new gym,
the three buildings
will be a valuable part
of the Terrytown community.
The library renovations
are expected to take
four months. Until it reopens, users can go to
the
West
Bank Regional Library in Harvey
(click on link for info and a map)
for library services.
If you have checked out books or other items from the Terrytown Library,
please return them to the West Bank Regional Library.
