Plymouth library will close for summer renovations
Renovations at the Plymouth District Library began in June and continue. The library launched a drive-thru service last month so users can easily pick up books on hold. Renovations will continue throughout the summer.
The library will be closed for main level renovations from Sept. 1 through 14. The main and upper levels will reopen Sept. 15 while lower level renovations begin.
Lower level collections will re-open in October with some areas temporarily cordoned off during the installation of the play space.
