Multi-million-dollar upgrade starts soon at Ōrewa Library

The Team from Auckland Council

It's good news that the extensive upgrade of Ōrewa Library will be completed by next June, three months ahead of schedule. Work starts next Monday and involves deconstructing about two thirds of the existing library, extensive upgrades including a new mezzanine floor.

The temporary library is on track to open on 8 July at Ōrewa Community Centre. In the meantime, don't forget to pick up any books on hold at Whangaparāoa Library.
