On this page, we will have roof and ceiling repair updates on the Richmond Library every two weeks until the library is reopened. The estimated date for the library’s reopening is summer 2025.
March 6, 2025 - Construction work on the roof has been ongoing. The previous tile has been removed and new tile has been added on the Almond Street-facing section. Crews are examining the wood and other support materials in other sections of the roof and making repairs as needed.
February 18, 2025 – Roof replaces construction started today, after a two-week delay due to winter weather. Over the next two weeks, the roofer will be working on installing the front section of the roof. We will have more updates in early March.
