Libraries Horowhenua has announced it is refurbishing its Shannon branch over the next three weeks, during which time the library will be closed.
Library services manager Wendy Fraser said the refurbishment would create a bright, vibrant space for the Shannon community.
"It's important that our libraries are inviting and aesthetically appealing places for learning and recreation. The Levin Library has excellent modern facilities at Te Takeretanga o Kura-hau-pō, and in 2017 we moved the Foxton Library into new premises at Te Awahou Nieuwe Stroom. We wanted to make sure people in Shannon got a fresh new library environment too."
The refurbishment will include new carpets, shelving and desks, and work will be carried out by local contractors where possible.
Ms Fraser said the new furniture would make more flexible use of space.
