Default The new library?

Does anyone have an idea when the new library/community center on 466A is expected to open? Looks like it's pretty well completed. I'm eager to see it open because it's very convenient to me in Hemingway.

This is from the county web site

New Library in the northern part of the County
Sumter County is planning to construct 15,502 sq. ft. of new branch library space on CR 139 north of Wildwood as part of the new government service center planned by the County. The new library will serve residents of The Villages, Wildwood, and surrounding areas. Construction is expected to begin in 2010 with planned occupancy by November 2010. Visit the linked page for details of the project and a virtual tour of the building, including the library.

I was at the building office today and they are moving in Septemberl.

Default Hope it is better than .......

I hope either one of these two facilities is better than the so called "library" near Belvidere. What a waste of space. No Reference Dept, no microfilm readers, no geneaology section.
Great if all you want is a book to read but libraries are supposed to be so much more than a place to borrow books.

Neat bumper sticker. Went like this: "It's God's job to judge terrorists. Our job is to arrange the meeting!"

Be a gentleman, remove your hat/cap when entering a building and dining out!
