Oh yes, 2 years, and who wants to place bets about whether this government project will be done on time? Originally they were just going to put in a handicapped ramp but now they are going to overhaul the whole building, keeping the exterior and giving it a new interior. The building is a historic landmark built by the Carnegie family over 100 years ago. So guess how much this project is costing us taxpayers? $2.7 million. And the irony is, now that I have purchased my ereader, I am loving library ebooks so much, I don't know if I will use the library much when it re-opens. And my daughter prefers to go to B&N anyway.
