Notice Board
Construction work at the Downtown Library will begin on January 13, 2025, and will continue until the end of March 2025. The library will be open during construction, but some areas will not be accessible while certain work takes place. Library staff will be able to accommodate the public during this time. Work that will be taking place includes:
- The replacement of 90 per cent of the facility’s lighting with LED lighting which will better support those with visual impairments.
- Upgrades to HVAC systems, including replacement of certain air handling units and radiant heaters as well as duct cleaning throughout the facility.
- Most of the renovation work will happen overnight but visitors may hear occasional construction noise. It is anticipated that short power outages may occur to implement electrical improvements to the building.
Further details about the scope of work that will take place with the St. Albert Place Lifecycle and Facility Repair project are available on the City of St. Albert’s website at: https://stalbert.ca/dev/construction/buildings/sap-construction/. We appreciate everyone’s patience as we complete this work.
