A lot can happen in one week

I walked in the door of the new Mahomet Public Library building today, and exclaimed, "There are changes since I was here just a week ago!" Ceramic tile was popping up on walls and floors in the restrooms.
Light fixtures were also being hung, as you can see in this staff workroom. The fixtures used in the young adult section really set it apart from the rest of the library...they're a nice dark red.
Here's what the library will look like as you walk in the front doors:

Later in the week, I will post a progress update as presented by Kate Smith at tonight's board meeting.
