Our library building is failing and now it’s urgent.

There are constant failures — big and small — in critical library building systems (vintage 1965).  These failures have already led to multiple library closures and could have disastrous consequences for the resources inside. The problems with the building cannot wait any longer.

At a cost of tens of millions, repairing the old building is not a responsible option.

If we want to keep a Library in Belmont, we need to replace the building.
