Children's Room Renovations

CLoH is in the planning stage of the renovation of the Children's Room. This project also involves relocating the Circulation Desk, Teen Space and Adult Computers.

The grants for this project have been provided by the Allegheny Foundation and Janney Investments. The project will start this July and we hope to have it completed by September.

Some exciting new elements of the renovations are:

A stage area for toddler storytimes, puppet shows and plays.

A family seating area for a more comfortable storytime between parent and child.

More computers.

An area for a caregiver and toddler to be side by side. This area will allow the adult to use the computer and the toddler to explore the new space, while still being monitored by the adult.

A wonderful, colorful mural created by a Pittsburgh area artist.

New bookshelves.

The Children's Room as it looks today.
