The City has received two proposals for construction of a new central library and has contracted for a study of the options for renovating the current facility. A city Committee is currently reviewing these proposals and is expected to make a recommendation soon.

This will be a chance to hear presentations about each of the options and to engage is a discussion on the merits of each. Community input is vital to the assessing the future of the central library. This is your chance to become informed and to inform the decision makers.

A significant portion of the forum will be devoted to a community discussion of the future of the central library as portrayed by these three options.

Further information on the two developer proposals is available on the Madison Library website.
