What's New at Moon

An Extreme makeover for Moon Library

Summer 2007 brought great changes to the Moon Library. This "extreme makeover" included new floor coverings (tile and carpet) and new furniture. Additionally, a new circulation/reserve/reference desk (affectionately known as THE DESK) was relocated to the center of the building, facing the front door. This also created a flexible open space adjacent to the entry which will be a lounge area or gathering space for special occasions. A number of small "living rooms" were created with couches and chairs throughout the first floor. Additional public access computers were added to the center of the library adjacent to THE DESK. Finally wooden end panels replaced the metal ones on the end of the book stacks. We hope you like our new fabulous look. The entire staff worked with Artistry in Wood of East Syracuse to design the wood furniture and with GPR Designs to select the couches and chairs for the living room spaces.
