Manchester library cancels summer reading program while building closed
Summary
Staff canceled the branch's summer reading program because the building remains inaccessible and no alternative venues were available; director Polly said special programming might be possible if the site reopens in late June or early July.
Director Polly told the committee that, because the branch remains inaccessible during remediation, staff had to cancel planned summer reading activities: “We can't get in the building. We had to cancel our programming because we had no other venues to have them at.” She added that, if staff can access the building in late June or early July, they might schedule special programming for children before school starts.
Committee members expressed disappointment but acknowledged the constraints created by the remediation timeline. The director said the committee will post any special events to Facebook and the library website once plans are finalized.
