Library (continued from page 3) to be back in the renovated space in time to launch the 2010 Summer Reading Club. “We will have to close for a few weeks while we move to temporary quarters during the project,” Bloom said. While the construction is underway, the library will operate at 171 Lake Street, just before Route 17, on the east side of the borough. “We will be in the back of the Pavilion building, in space that will allow us to provide computers and some books and media for all ages. Although most of our collection will be in storage, we will continue to borrow items for you from other BCCLS libraries for delivery to our temporary home.” Patrons must have their library cards with them when visiting other BCCLS libraries, or they will not be able to borrow items. Bloom urges residents to act now to get a library card or to update an old one, if necessary. Neighboring libraries in Allendale, Franklin Lakes, Mahwah, Upper Saddle River, and Wyckoff have all agreed to support Ramsey during this transition. These libraries will have a supply of Ramsey Library cards on hand and can register new users or replace lost cards until Ramsey’s temporary location is open at the Pavilion. “The members of the board of trustees and everyone involved are thrilled that this project is about to start,” Bloom added. “We are more than happy to answer questions, and we thank our fellow libraries for watching our backs.” Details about these plans will be available on the library website: www.ramseylibrary.org.
