If you’re a parent with littles in the Brentwood area, I’m sure you’ve noticed the John P. Holt Brentwood Library children’s section closed for improvements since earlier this month.
“Our Children’s Department is getting a glow-up,” the library shared in a social media post. “From full shelves to empty spaces, we’re working hard to make the library even cozier for our youngest readers.”
Well, the wait is over and the Children’s Library renovations are officially complete! Some collections have shifted, so please ask staff if you can’t find an item.
