Nearly 30 people, including area lawmakers, attended a ceremonial groundbreaking Thursday morning for a $2.5 million 7,000 square-foot expansion and renovation project at The Public Library for Union County in Lewisburg. The library’s Board of Trustees hired LeFevre Wilk Architects of Selinsgrove to design the project, and the construction contract has been awarded to Keister Construction of Lewisburg. Pictured from left are: Guy Temple, trustee; Christine Mallula, board president; Kathleen Vellam, library director; Mary Csernica, trustee; Joanne Shannon, trustee; Sally Kobus, trustee; Martha Root, trustee; Barbara Baylor, board treasurer; Gary Baylor, capital campaign co-chair; Patricia Apple, capital campaign co-chair; Katie Evans, trustee; John Showers, Union Co. commissioner, Preston Boop, Union Co. commissioner; and Joseph Wilk and Robert Cook of LeFevre Wilk Architects. The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2008, and the library will remain open throughout the construction as much as possible. For more information, call 523-1172 or visit the library at 255 Reitz Blvd.
