STAFF REPORT
Walnut – Due to a major renovation, the Los Angeles County Library in Walnut will be closing its doors for five months beginning June 7, according to the City of Walnut. The cost of the project is estimated at $945,000.
“Walnut is grateful to the L.A. County Board of Supervisors for approving this project to enhance our community,” said Mayor Antonio “Tony” Cartagena in a news release. “The Walnut Library is a vital resource for our families, students, and seniors, and we are excited to see the renovations that will take place.”
The renovation will include a new floor plan to maximize public space, new furniture, self-checkout technology, additional computers, a large group study room, a new teen area, new carpet and paint, ADA upgrades, a redesigned public meeting room and a digital display in the lobby.
While the Walnut Library is closed, library patrons can visit the L.A. County Diamond Bar location at 21800 Copley Drive, in Diamond Bar; or the Rowland Heights location at 1850 Nogales Street, in Rowland Heights.
Didn’t return your books before the Walnut Library closed its doors? Don’t worry about incurring a five-month late fee. According to a City of Walnut news release, materials checked out from the Walnut location can be returned to any L.A. County public library.
