Superior Public Library Reopens on Tuesday

The Superior Public Library is almost done with their big remodeling project and they will reopen on Tuesday, May 29th after being closed for the last month.

During the closure, crews worked on asbestos abatement, carpet installation, demolition of the old Circulation Desk, and installation of new lowered shelving.

This is all part of a 6-month, $2.1 million project that started back in November.
