The Estero Library underwent renovations costing approximately $10.47 million, funded through the library’s Capital Improvement Budget. 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 children’s area has been expanded to accommodate more families, reflecting Estero’s demographic growth. Larger service desks now help staff assist visitors more efficiently.
New easy-to-use technology is everywhere, and help is available if needed. The interior and exterior redo offers a friendly, inviting, and open ambience. It is now easier to find books thanks to new creative shelving and technology offerings.
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.
Celebrating a Transformative Renovation
Despite taking months, the renovations have become a vital resource for Estero residents. Congratulations to everyone who contributed.
