Concepts Presented For Library Structure

On Monday, Oct. 28, Arkos Design of Mishawaka returned to the Syracuse Public Library for a follow-up to September’s building project workshop. Arkos representatives shared two potential concepts for staff, board of trustees’ members, and Friends of the Library to view.

Both concepts show the possibility of a 14,568-square-foot library structure on the 705 N. Dolan Drive. The concepts feature study spaces, meeting rooms that could be accessed after library hours, a central circulation desk, a quiet reading space, and more.
​
Attendees were able to provide feedback on the concepts for future refinements. Going forward, there will be additional meetings where the community will be encouraged to attend. Currently, community members can ask to see the concepts at the adult and children desks. The concepts are not final designs.
