Quiet Reading Room




Study carrels

We are moving steadily along with the renovation of the old quiet reading room.  It is starting to look like what, I think, we were looking for in a nice study space.  This project has been funded almost entirely by the Friends of the Hutchinson Public Library!  We are planning a grand opening for mid-July - watch for an official announcement.  The pics you see here are part of a series that Annette Smith has been collecting.  More of them can be seen on Facebook.  The wainscot you see in the room was created using oak hardwood paneling salvaged from the Women's Civic Center building.

Same wall with wainscot, new door, and trim
Now with floor and some of the new furniture
