Renovation Project News

The 2012 Renovation Project of the Rockingham Free Public Library is in full swing. The project is due for completion in January 2013, and the Library will remain open regular hours; shape-shifting as construction moves from floor to floor.  

Construction areas will be sealed off from the public.    

Phase I includes:
·         Complete renovation of the Youth department.
·         Expansion of ground floor for youth programs, activities and meeting   space
·         Construction of a new stairwell and elevator  tower, (for 3rd floor access.)
·         Renovation of third floor program area.
·         Installation of  temporary stairs and lift at the main entrance, for handicap access . 

Phase II of the project will begin in August or September, and will include a complete renovation of the Main Floor. During that time, all services and collections will move to the renovated ground floor.  Details for Phase II  will be available this summer.
