Lakewood Library Closed for Construction May 30-Sept. 5

We've got major upgrades planned for the Lakewood Library this summer. Unfortunately, this means we'll have to temporarily close while construction is taking place.

Planned upgrades to the library include:

replacement of an outdated heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system;
installation of an automated book sorter;
updates to make the library more energy efficient; and
a reconfiguration of administrative offices to enhance efficiencies and workflows.

Storytimes, the Young Readers' Fun Club, and Summer Reading Club sign up and completion will be held at the Whitlock Recreation Center. See our schedule for more details. Please note that you can sign up for Summer Reading Club at any of our locations.

The closure includes the library's book drop. Patrons are encouraged to use any of our other nearby libraries for your needs, including Arvada, Belmar, Edgewater, Golden and Wheat Ridge.

We know this is an inconvenience for our patrons, but the renovation will allow us to improve customer service, enhance operations, capture energy efficiencies and reduce operating costs.

Thanks for your patience!
