Scenic Regional Library Staff Looks Forward to New Facility

With a sparkling new facility to look forward to early next summer, the new branch manager of the New Haven Scenic Regional Library is concentrating on increased programming and attracting more patrons to the existing library in the meantime.

“Obviously the biggest thing on the table right now is the new construction project,” said Branch Manager Rachel Terbrock. “It will begin, we hope, in the month of August. We should see our machines and our guys over there starting the process.”

Ground was broken on Douglas Street for the new library April 15. The new 4,500-square-foot building will replace the existing 1,500-square-foot library housed in an old church at 901 Maupin. That building has been in use as a library since 1990.
