Inside the computer lab

Submitted by Christina Thompson on Tue, 03/27/2012 - 12:40pm

Last week we showed  you a picture of the outside of our new computer lab.  Today, we have a photograph tracking the progress inside our new computer lab.  It's mostly just wood framing now, but soon it will full of new computers for your use!  Don't forget that while Galena Park library is closed you can visit any other Harris County Library branch, such as our Jacinto City or North Channel branches.

Hey tweens, looking for a book club just for you?  This Wednesday, March 28th at 4:30pm, bring your latest favorite read and enjoy some light refreshments and socializing! Occasional book related crafts/activities or cooking.  See you there!

One roof up, one ceiling down

Renovations continue at the Galena Park Library.  As you can see, the roof is taking shape on our new computer lab.  And it's just in time with all the wet weather we've been having!  While a new room goes up, an old ceiling comes down.  You can see in the photo of our front entryway that we are now missing our old ceiling tiles.  Coming soon, new ceiling tiles!  Check back to catch up on our progress, and don't forget to visit our other library branches in Jacinto City or our North Channel Branch on Wallisville Road.

Construction update @ Galena Park

Submitted by Christina Thompson on Wed, 03/14/2012 - 12:35pm

Galena Park is starting to look different now!  We took some pictures so you can start to track your library's progress.  Check out the inside shot of the library.  Sure looks different with no books or shelves up!  And our new computer lab is taking shape with the walls up and the roof in progress.  We hope you are as excited about these changes as we are!  Check back for more updates as this project moves along.  And don't forget, you can still visit any Harris County Library branch for your library needs, like our nearby Jacinto City Branch on Akron and North Channel Branch on Wallisville Road.
