Description
The area that formerly housed the Sheriff's Office has now become a periodical and oversized book reading room, complete with audio-visual equipment that allows classes of 20-25 students to receive library instruction. Since the children involved are in grades K through 5, the area is carpeted since sitting on the floor is the norm. We also designed and built bookcases of quality for the library so that students would experience the attention to detail that an older structure can bring to their lives. This new Library facility is currently used by 400-450 students of the Byfield and Reynolds Schools each week.
