The Potomac library branch is closing at 6 p.m. on Sunday, May 22 for a refresh project. The branch will remain closed for approximately eight to 10 months.
“Physical construction for the refresh project at Potomac will begin in July; we are closing ahead of the construction start date to complete the internal reorganization of collections and shelving,” said Montgomery County Public Libraries Director Anita Vassallo. “We look forward to resuming operations at the branch in early 2023, and hope customers will access services at nearby branches and continue to use our website while the facility is undergoing the refresh process.”
The project will include the new flooring, shelving, service desk, and furniture, as well as painting. The children’s area will be redesigned. The work will also bring the building into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
More information about the closing and the refresh project is available online. The website has details on the last date for book returns in the branch book drop and the last date for placement of holds for the Potomac Library.
The library is located at 10101 Glenolden Dr. in Potomac.
