A QUARTER CENTURY OF WAITING - BUT HERE IT IS!
The Library will feature meeting rooms that can be used by community groups. There is a conference room overlooking the serene and beautiful area that soon will feature the Serenity Circle dedicated to the legacy of St. Tammany's internationally acclaimed author, Walker Percy. Smaller study rooms are available as well as a quiet room for contemplation, writing, and reading. The walls of the corridor will feature paintings of local artists. These will be selected later.
There are captivating areas for children and for teens that we know will form a vital link with our excellent school system.
A technological center is there to offer citizens of St. Tammany training not just in the basics of technology but classes to make St. Tammany residents wise to new data banks, social media, blogs, newsletter skills, and business applications.
And, of course, reference materials, classics, non-fiction books, fiction and the latest best sellers are waiting for you to explore. Books found in the entire system can be ordered at Madisonville if they are in another branch of our library.
We cannot begin to tell you about every possibility the Madisonville branch affords. Come see. On September 7 from 10 AM to 2 PM tours and activities will abound.
Not long ago, the site looked like this:
Now here it is completed. Isn't it beautiful? And it is stunning on all four sides - all appropriate to the beautiful area in which it is located.
DON'T FORGET THESE DATES:
September 5th is the Ribbon Cutting day to be followed by tours of the Library at 11 AM!
On Saturday, September 7 - from 10 AM until 4 PM - all sorts of activities will take place in the Library.
SEE YOU THERE!
