Weigh In On Wayland’s New Library Design

WAYLAND, MA—It's your library, Wayland. Here's your chance to weigh in on it.

On Thursday, March 8, at 7 p.m., the Wayland Library Planning Committee and the Board of Library Trustees is holding a forum for residents to meet with the project’s architect and view the revised proposed library design, according to an announcement from the trustees.

Learn about LEED certification and the new opportunities this building will create for programs, meetings, learning, explorations, and connections.

The forum takes place in the Large Hearing Room at the Wayland Town Building. Members of the architectural team, and the Board of Library Trustees, are also be on hand to answer questions.

The public forum is the second of at least three public forums to be held between now and April’s Annual Town Meeting where residents will decide on funding a new library at 195 Main Street, the site of the former Highway Department garage, next to the middle school. Construction costs will be partially offset by a $10.1 M state grant, which will contribute approximately 40 percent of the cost, if residents vote to fund the new library’s construction.
