Renovation of a library in River Falls, Wisconsin. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a library.

The existing service area at the front of the library includes a fixed service desk, a fixed self-checkout desk, holds, and a local history section. Improvements to the front area allow for the relocation of the computer lab to a prominent, public area, the use of flexible systems furniture to provide future flexibility for the service desk and the self-checkout station, and the optimization of the holds section closer to the front entrance of the library. An improvement project for the service area would include the following: - Design of prominent integrated information desk with additional storage and flexible systems furniture - Relocate computer units to center of library for improved visibility and access (technology and power updates) - Consolidate self-checkout into smaller, improved footprint - Relocate holds area and coffee station next to office suite doors The project is include in the City's 2024 -2028 Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
