The Donor Screen in the Vestibule
Published: January 20, 2023
Start in front of the donor screen in the vestibule. You’re standing in front of our donor recognition screen. While there was library funding set aside for the building project, skyrocketing construction costs and added features meant a shortfall for the library. Our ambitious capital campaign set a goal of raising $2 million. We thank our many donors for making this space possible. Superior Tour Homepage Next: Drive-Up Book Return

Bird-friendly Glass
Published: January 20, 2023
You may have noticed the dots on the windows. All of the glass at the new Superior building is bird-friendly. The dots are spaced closely enough so they interrupt any reflection that the bird may see, which prevents birds from flying into the windows. The glass was installed with the help of donations from the Humane Society of the United States and other local bird groups. Superior Tour Homepage Next: Teen Area
