Big changes are coming for the Main Library in downtown Sioux Falls. In mid-April 2008, construction began on the expansion and renovation of the 35 year old building. Expected to take two years, the building project will add about 19,000 square feet of library space. The building will be constructed to add a future second floor on the addition.
Building features include more space for computers, library materials, programs, meetings, group study, a special area for teens, and a beautiful glass reading area on the southeast corner.
The Library will remain open through construction. We will post Main Library service information, project notes and photos throughout the next two years on this webpage, so please check back often.
