OCOTILLO LIBRARY CLOSES FOR RENOVATION AUGUST 21

 

Ocotillo Library (102 W. Southern Ave.) will close on August 21 for renovation. It will re-open as a Workforce Literacy Center on April 24, 2012.

The renovation project will triple the number of computer stations available to customers. In addition, a study room, training lab and new meeting room will be constructed. When the facility re-opens, it will offer classes in resume writing, interviewing skills, computer use, GED preparation and English as a Second Language (ESL).

The Center will continue to provide library service with a collection of materials to support workforce literacy, addressing resume writing, occupational testing, ESL and computer skills. A collection of children’s materials will continue to be available.

The project is funded in part by a one-time 2008-2009 Community Development Block Grant Stimulus (CDBG-R) award to the City of Phoenix under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). The total cost of the project is $1,655,846.

The book drop at Ocotillo Library will not be available during the renovation. Library customers are encouraged to visit Cesar Chavez Library (3635 W. Baseline Rd.) or South Mountain Community Library (7050 S. 24th St.), which opens to the public on August 16th. 2011.

South Mountain Community Library (2010)

Posted by South Mountain Villager on October 7, 2010

Progress on the South Mountain Community Library, a joint venture between the Phoenix Public Library and South Mountain Community College, continued this month, as workers began to install the copper sheeting on the building’s exterior walls that will give the facility a truly distinctive (and uniquely Arizonan) appearance.

Photographers are welcome! To schedule a visit, call or e-mail Rob Price at 602.243.8030 or price@southmountaincc.edu.
