Library Will Close for Energy Efficient Lighting Upgrade and Exterior Painting

The Monterey Public Library will be closed from Friday, February 15 through Monday, February 18, for energy efficient lighting upgrades. The new lighting installation will provide an annual energy savings of over 9,000 kilowatt hours and a cost savings amounting to thousands of dollars over the life of the new fixtures.

During the closure, library materials may be returned in the curbside book drops on Pacific Street. However,  curbside parking may not be available at times because exterior painting will be underway. Catalog access, renewals, placing of holds, library card account information, access to most databases and other online services will be continue to be accessible from the library's Web site at www.monterey.org/library. The library will reopen on Tuesday, February 19, at 10 a.m.
