The updated design incorporates enhancements intended to benefit individuals of all ages, from children to older adults. The new entrance area provides easy, inviting access to the library’s interior. The transformation has been thoughtfully orchestrated and well designed.

The Improved mechanical and technological upgrades include:
- 12 public PCs to share/use.
- 6 study rooms.
- 760 ft programming room with areas for kids and teens.
- Rooms to study, do research, and do homework with access to PCs, printers, and copiers.
