Taylorville Library Begins Remediation Process

The remediation process has begun at the Taylorville Public Library. Gary Merker, President of the Board of Trustees at the Taylorville Public Library recently told Regional Radio News how the Library was given a detailed quote for the costs of the project, and how no matter what needs to be done, those costs will not exceed a certain amount.

 

 

Merker said how it’s believed that the mold issues stem from the recent roofing replacement at the Library. Merker said how it rained before work was complete on the roof, leading to water getting into screw holes left over from previous work that were not yet covered up. Work is expected to be completed towards the end of May, with the Library hopefully re-opening shortly after. Merker did state how the Library doesn’t expect the work to affect the upcoming Summer Reading Program.

 

 

In response to the closure, the Library Board voted unanimously to continue to pay library staff based on their normal work-week wages.
