The SouthShore Regional Library will begin renovations on June 1, 2026, with an anticipated completion date of Summer 2027.
The renovations include:
- A separate and enclosed children's library featuring an Early Learning Hive for tactile play.
- Additional study rooms and meeting spaces of varying sizes.
- Updated individual restrooms.
- All new furniture.

While we undergo these exciting renovations to enhance your library experience, some services and amenities will be temporarily impacted. In the first phase these include:
- Meeting spaces limited to walk-up study rooms only.
- The Children's Room will be relocated and will feature limited materials and computer stations.
- Programs (Events & Classes), including Early Literacy will be unavailable.
- We encourage you to visit the Ruskin Branch Library and the Riverview Public Library for programs during this period. Our staff at these locations will be delighted to assist you.
- The Friends of the Library bookstore and Vending Machines will be unavailable.
- The recording studio will be unavailable.
