As I type this, I’m sitting in the beautiful, new and improved, Bradford Public Library.
This state of the art location certainly doesn’t have the warmth or charm of the old library but it’s terrific in its own way — it has more of a modern feel with clean lines, an open concept and tons of natural light.
And there is so much space – so many great reading areas, from quiet rooms for solo studying/working to the bright and delightful kids nook. There are ample workstations sprinkled throughout the two levels complete with electrical outlets in each table to keep laptops charged!!
The periodical room has floor to ceiling (and by ceiling I mean two stories high) windows. There’s also a nice gas fireplace in this room, not necessary at the moment but will be perfect for those chilly fall and winter days ahead.
The grand opening is Friday, June 3 at 2:00 pm followed by all sorts of fun family activities from 5:00pm till 9:00pm — I urge everyone to check out the new digs, and check out some books while you’re at it.
