CH Booth Library could reopen in about 6 weeks.  The facility in Newtown has been shuttered since January 4th when a sprinkler pipe burst on an upper floor and caused extensive damage.  Most of the library's collection was spared from damage. 

Reference Department head librarian Andy Forsyth says repairs are ahead of earlier projections, and the library could reopen around March 1st.

An information desk is being staffed in the old Courtroom of Edmond Town Hall.  The Reference Department staff are on hand to help patrons check out eBooks and eAudiobooks, place holds on material and manage online accounts.  Librarians will also help people with federal and state tax forms.  The satellite location will be open Mondays through Thursdays 2pm to 6pm and on Saturdays from 9am to noon.
