“This building has been meticulously planned to meet the evolving needs of Westfield’s residents,” WWPL Executive Director Sheryl Sollars said. “We invite everyone to join us as we embark on this exciting new chapter together.”
The grand opening will be followed by a slew of activities to kick off the library’s Summer Reading Program. This year’s theme is “Adventures Begin at Your Library” and will include a visit from life-like dinosaurs and folklorico dancers at 2 p.m. and a ukulele circle at 4 p.m.
The new 43,000 square-foot facility, located at 17400 Westfield Blvd., features expanded parking, a dedicated teen area, a spacious community room, and a coffee shop.
Additionally, the 3.6-acre property will offer outdoor activity space for the community to enjoy. The Westfield Washington Township offices will call the west side of the building home.
