Renovation of a library in Guerneville, California. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a library.

Renovate facility to include a new Teen Room, spaces for local history, the 'Friends' and an enlarged meeting room. The Entry is to be reoriented, and the Service Desk to embrace modern library service concepts with improved access and functionality. This 26 year old facility needs energy efficiency, technology, seismic safety, and access compliance upgrades. Old, inefficient lighting was designed for a different layout. Aspects of the public interior are not yet fully accessible. A 'No-Project' option leaves functional, seismic, and accessibility issues unresolved. Phasing is possible, but costs would increase. The proposed project invests in a key community asset. A Library Facilities Master Plan was completed in April 2017. This Plan describes facility needs in more detail. This project is included in the Sonoma County's FY 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). As of April 23, 2024, information regarding a design team and a general contractor is not available. A timeline for construction has not been determined. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
