OREGON, Ohio – After nearly six months of closure due to a water main break, the Oregon Branch Library opened its doors again.
The water damage in August caused significant damage to the building, shutting down the library. Fortunately, the damage was isolated to the building itself, not the library’s catalogue or equipment.
Brooke Cox, the manager of the Oregon Branch Library, thanked the Oregon community for their patience throughout this process of renovation, which included new carpeting throughout the whole library, new electrical systems and new drywall.
“We really cannot wait for it to look and feel like a library in here again,” she said.
Hours of operation: 9 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday; 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday; and Sunday; and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
